As some of you probably know, I was banned from the forum some time ago. Apparently, the ban has expired. I'm not posting here to argue with anyone or create unnecessary conflict. I wouldn't be here at all but for the fact that NFOA still sends me email alerts. I was curious about the legislation that NFOA is supporting regarding the so called castle doctrine. It was unclear to me in the letter posted by Mr. Allen, apparently from the Omaha World Herald, whether the legislation being supported included the right to defend oneself anywhere one has a legal right to be, or exclusively in ones' own home.
As for Lincoln law, the topic of this thread, I don't have documentation at hand. However, I seem to recall after doing some research in the past that the special misdemeanor crimes that prohibit possession of a firearm in Lincoln and preclude one from getting a permit to purchase will not be enforced against those with a concealed handgun permit. On an additional note, I believe possession includes ownership, not simply have the firearm on or near you at any given time. Therefore, taking guns to your father's house, or some other friend or relative, would not prevent prosectution for this offense unless the place of storage was outside the city limits. Just an FYI for anyone caught in this situation.
