Anti-Gun Propaganda or Valuable use of Time?
DaveB:
You mean like the OC and CC laws that Omaha ignored? Go ahead and play with your friends in Omaha. The friends you protect has a lot to do with your credibility and respect in front of others.
And don't forget, OPD wants metal detectors at HS sporting events to keep CCW carriers out.

It seems to me that even if this is some kind of ulterior attempt to undermine concealed carry we would be well served to attend it. If they do present false information having someone there who can counter them with facts and a calm, polite, thoughtful response would go a long ways. I don't trust Conboy either and I wouldn't doubt if he uses this as a way to further Omaha's antigun agenda.
If it turns out that this isn't an attack on concealed carry it may turn into a good recruiting tool.

Are you actually reading what Im posting? Not sure were you get Im trying to "protect" anyone. The only one of the three Ive ever met is Jake and I know he can take care of himself.
Since these are the guys whose legal opinions we have to be concerned about, I think you ignore them at your own peril. Ignorance of the law is never an excuse. My personal opinions, and yours for that matter, about the law really dont matter at all.
Not sure what metal detectors at HS sporting events has to do with this discussion. But with the large gang presence at many OPD schools, along with episodes of violence at HS events, Im sure the only reason for these detectors is to catch CCW holders violating the law.
And you are certainly welcome to call my credibility into question, this is only the internet afterall. And for all you know I could be a 12y/o girl posting during breaks from playing Call of Duty.
But seriously, take it down a notch. Here, maybe a smiley face will make you feel better ;D

One way or the other, maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea for a group of NFOA members show up for this thing. If they are pushing anti-gun agenda, our presence could not only bother them a bit and if discussion is allowed, the wind could be taken out of their sails with these silly things called facts.
Now on the flipside, if they are truly bent on safety and keeping guns out of the bad guys' hands, we could back them up, showing we are not just a bunch of gun nuts, that we too believe in responsible gun ownership and useage.
I am not a good candidate for witty dialouge, but I would be willing to show in support.
Is there any of our Lobbying guys that would want to put a little trip together to this thing?

I know for a fact someone will be there to monitor what they are saying.... And heck, lets keep an open mind, there may be some good info to learn from them.
I don't think it would be a good idea to walk in there with the intent of setting them straight..... Let them make their presentation..... But I will say if they are presenting false information to the public, there will be some complaints made to their superiors to set them straight.
On a side note someone above mentioned Safety & Health Council Instructors giving false information...... not sure if that is the case or not.... But I can tell you that one of them was signing off on individuals Utah concealed firearm permit applications telling students that all they had to do was send it in. These students were not happy at all when Utah rejected their applications because the Instructor in question was not, and still is not certified by the state of Utah. Then they had to come pay for another class in order to get their Utah permit.
