Coyote Dan:
In LB63, an amended section is as follows below. Now I know the majority here are not lawyers, but even in the event of self defense either by a CCW holder or in your own house (dwelling), the shooter is a felon according to this section, correct?
22 Sec. 15. Section 28-1212.02, Reissue Revised Statutes of
23 Nebraska, is amended to read:
24 28-1212.02 Any person who intentionally discharges a
25 firearm at an inhabited dwelling house, occupied building, occupied
-17-
LB 63 LB 63
1 motor vehicle, occupied aircraft, inhabited motor home as defined
2 in section 71-4603, or inhabited camper unit as defined in section
3 60-1801 shall be guilty of a Class III ID felony.

Coyote Dan:
P.S...
It was Friend whom introduced this bill. This bill also up the penalties for many gun related infractions to felonies, including the one in discussion of discharging a firearm.

"28-1212.02 Any person who intentionally discharges a
25 firearm at an inhabited dwelling house, occupied building, occupied...... "
I take "at" to mean toward, but if you give a lawyer or prosecutor (same species of weasel, just a color varience) ANY wiggle room, they can twist it around to their employer's benefit.....
Jesse T:
I think it means firing a weapon at anything, while standing in an inhabited dwelling house, building, etc.
At least, I would say that is how lawyers will use it.
FarmerRick:
Basically, I think they're trying to say "no drive-by's". It's not really needed, but if adopted, I think that something about lawful self defense should be added somehow.
