All right I have some more  ::)   :

I think it great to individually make calls and drop e-mails - but how many actually follow through?

And I mean NO DISRESPECT by this following statement:

But some of those people that are answering the phones at the N.S.P. have no power to really do anything other than to answer the phone and push paper -- A job that I could not do - I don't have the personality to do it.

This problem is going to continue to go on until a loud enough voice is heard to  the right people - This is a law and really is not up for discussion or debate.

I think it should be addressed as a hole collective, not just by those who are still waiting but also by anyone HAS who waited past the "Legally Defined waiting Period" both those as new applicants and also those who have put in for renewals. - And there are probably thousands in the state of Nebraska that meet this criteria .

The N.S.P. is not just a law enforcement agency but also a business that must be run like one, especially when it comes to staffing guidelines, They have been doing this long enough to know when the peak demands are going to be and need to hire accordingly - and by the way "They work for us not the other way around  - I paid them $100 to do a job for me !!.

If you put enough names together and anyone with any common sense take a look at it  - They have to agree that this problem is not just a isolated case but the norm that has been let continue to go on. --- One that violates a law that they are just as responsible to uphold.

All right I am done  ::) - This what happens when I have time to think  - Thanks for listening - Neal

Neal,

I agree with you and think that you have some strong points.  I fully intend to follow though as I have made phone calls and I did send my first email to the Governor.

"But some of those people that are answering the phones at the N.S.P. have no power to really do anything other than to answer the phone and push paper -- A job that I could not do - I don't have the personality to do it."

I know that some of the employees do not have the power, but some also do.  I believe that they should be able to at least put someone in contact with a person of authoritative power.

"The N.S.P. is not just a law enforcement agency but also a business that must be run like one, especially when it comes to staffing guidelines, They have been doing this long enough to know when the peak demands are going to be and need to hire accordingly - and by the way "They work for us not the other way around  - I paid them $100 to do a job for me !!."

The N.S.P. is a law enforcement agency first and foremost.  I also believe that you are right, it is a business when it comes to our permits.  Even a business has an obligation to their clients.  Charging them and then not producing within a timely manner is unethical and in this case- against the law.  Even a business has certain laws to abide by.

I believe that the N.S.P. should be producing this permits the minute we sign our name on the line.  We run significant risks by not providing truthful information on the application- in fact- falsifying information is grounds for a felony charge.

If they are breaking the law- what is their consequence?  As of now- not a thing.

I personally am very frustrated because within the last year, I have underwent 3 background checks.

1.  I went through an ATF phone check while making a transaction in a pawn shop.  The ATF cleared me by phone in less than 60 seconds.

2.  I went through the process of a Douglas County Sheriff purchase permit/ background check.  That was done and over with in 15 minutes or so.

3.  I went through the Omaha Police Department to register my handguns (although they heckled me) it was done in about 15 minutes.

I am really curious to know what it is that the N.S.P. is doing that takes 45 days or more that the other entities did in 15 minutes or less?

I am just sharing my opinion & and I value yours as well. 

Thanks for listening.
