Need legislation to allow carry on university campuses

<< < (10/10)

rudy:
I guess I should've been more specific.  Has any progress been made towards allowing concealed carry on campus?  Is there anything that I can do?  Write to legislators, etc.?

AAllen:
Rudy athis moment the best thing you can do is vote, and vote for Senators that will support your rights.  Want to help develop Senators that will do that, check out the NFOA-PAF we are really just getting started but it is already having an effect.  Then of course there is the ultimate, be certain to help the Legislative Candidates that support you, it does not require a lot of money they need people to help walk neighborhoods, put out yard signs, make a few phone calls.  If you can give one evening or a couple of hours on a weekend they would appreciate your assistance, and understand how important your rights are and that they need to support them.

In one of the Judiciary Hearings I attended (after the Westroads shooting, IIRC), Ashford asked the question, "What, do you propose we do nothing?  We MUST do SOMETHING."  His proposal was to form a blue-ribbon commission to make and biannually update a list of guns "Too dangerous for civilian ownership.", and ban them. He worked a backroom deal with the NRA to get them to be "Nuetral" on this in exchange for getting rid of the Firearm Purchase Permit.  Only quick action by Nebraska gun rights groups, including this one, got this stopped.

This is the mark of a Progressive: the idea that the answer to everything is more Government.

For the record, Bill Kintner's District 2 opponent, Paul Lambert of Plattsmouth, is of this ilk.
