Customer Shoots Robber in Drug Store???
DanClrk51:
Ok, I think Omaha has now gone way too far with their whole registration crap! They are regulating ownership and denying one to own a firearm because of a misdemeanor charge?!!!! This is a violation of the 2nd Amendment. The Supreme Court has already ruled that only felonies can be used to take away this constitutional right! Its time the legislature bans registration of firearms in this state and that they pass full pre-emption of ALL firearms laws. I've had enough of Omaha's shenanigans!

Prosecutor Waits For Video Before Walgreens Decision
Customer Who Killed Would-Be Robber May Be Charged
POSTED: 11:49 am CDT May 3, 2010

OMAHA, Neb. --
The city prosecutor said he's waiting to see surveillance video before deciding whether to charge a customer who opened fire inside a Walgreens, killing a would-be armed robber.
Marty Conboy said he hopes to make a decision by Wednesday in the case of James McCullough.
Police said McCullough shot and killed Marquail Thomas last week at the store near 61st Street and Northwest Radial Highway.
Conboy said the video will help show whether McCullough's weapon was completely concealed. McCullough had a permit to carry a weapon, but under state law, the weapon isn't supposed to be concealed.
Thomas' weapon, a sawed-off shotgun, turned out to be unloaded.

Omaha's registration is may-issue, and subject to all the bias abuses of may-issue systems everywhere. If you bring a gun you already own to OPD headquarters to register and they decide they don't like you, they keep your gun.
On a somewhat better note, I just got my Front Sight members' newsletter today, and they have a free lifetime membership waiting for Mr. McCullough.

OUTSTANDING! Glad to see Front Sight stepping up!
