Ms. Watts should talk with Mr Conboy and consult state law.

Omaha does not have the power to regulate the transportation, possession,  registration or ownership of a handgun by any person that possesses a valid concealed handgun permit.


edit to add

Quote
ec. 20-206.  Carrying weapons.
(a)   As provided in section 20-192, the carrying of a concealed weapon is expressly forbidden.
(b)   In all other cases, it shall be unlawful for a person to go armed with a loaded concealable firearm of any kind or to knowingly carry or transport a concealable firearm in a motor vehicle, provided, however, that this section shall not apply to the following persons:
10)   Persons possessing a valid permit to carry a concealed firearm under Nebraska Law.

Dan W,

That is how I interpret it......

SFG is one of my more astute brethren, so I was curious if he knew something I didn't (besides higher engineering and math) or I misread his post.

When Omaha recognized the Nebraska Permit to be able to carry concealed in Omaha they also recognized it as being the equivilant of their open carry permit, so you do not need the OC permit to open carry if you have a CCW.

The note from the National Safety Council, they want your $100.  From the comments I have heard from people that took either the CCW course or the open carry course from them is their classes are poor and are just a way for them to discourage people to carry firearms while takeing your money.

I have heard the same thing from more than a few people.   ::)

Again, sorry the recall failed.
Gun related issues are, by nature, deadly serious.  Still, you have to maintain a sense of humor about them.

It may have failed in the vote, but he knows that he better not upset the two voters that kept him from going down. His new taxes will get him voted out if he runs again.
