OnTheFly:
There was one (maybe 4, 5 or 6) where someone in an Omaha restaurant was showing off his firearm in a restaurant and had a ND.  Bullet did not hit anyone, but the flying concrete did.

Another story on 10/11 news site about the lack of numbers.
Some yahoo in the comments had the galls to bash the liberal media and the Metro Cities councils, not to mention the OPD and LPD brass.

"I don't know that we do a very good job of being able to track that," Peschong said. "If memory serves me right, that was kind of specific in the law that that information couldn't be released."


translation: we aren't doing what i would like to do to keep you safe. just so you know the law makes it harder for me to keep you, your babies, and little kittens safe from being gunned down.

Behm said he didn't know of any state agency or group, other than the patrol or local agencies, that might track such incidents.
"I'd be curious, too."


translation: i have done extensive research in the matter, and couldn't find a way to track these people down. it would make me feel better to know what these people do and where they are, it would also help me keep blood from running in the streets.


A month after the Concealed Handgun Permit Act went into effect, former Sen. Jeanne Combs of Milligan told the Journal Star she thought the information should be kept private unless there is a good reason to release it. So far, she said, handgun permit holders haven't been proven to be a danger.
And if the information were public, they could be targeted by burglars looking for expensive guns, she said.

"I see more harm than good from releasing a list."


i like the article leaves off on this note, as this is generally what the reader leaves reading the article with. it is also a vary good point that would be hard to argue against.


it seems they tried to be unbiased.  they only make reference to it being a safe practice twice, and instilled a slight paranoia throughout the rest of the article i have a good idea where they lay on the issue.
