You just know that there are folks out there, mean spirited folks, with a burning hatred for the NRA and everyone associated with it, who will call in a "man with a gun" and perhaps embellish an item or two, just to teach those "mouth breathing redneck yahoos" a thing or two.
The odds aren't good of the above scenario actually happening but I'd say in Lincoln with its' relatively high population of left leaners, you're tempting fate.
Who needs the headache?
And wasn't there an incident in Lincoln in the last year where a restaurant patron noticed a partially obscured handgun on another customer's hip and they went into vaporlock over the ordeal? I remember Chief Peschong waving his finger in our faces and solemnly reminding that this was exactly the reason that he opposed CCW, because it might frighten some people.
D.A.D.:
Lorimor,
We actually just had an incident where I work where an employee reported to their manager that they was a long gun in open view in another employee's locked vehicle. The report travelled up the food chain and someone at an administrative level called the police (LPD). The employee was brought in and informed there was a company policy (I have never seen it in writing after having been there for over 3 decades) against employees possessing firearms in their personal vehicles in a parking that is open to the public. He received a verbal warning from someone in authority (he admits it was dumb not to have it covered or in his trunk), but was also met by a police officer who informed him that he had not done anything illegal. All he did was violate a little known company policy, yet got to experience the pleasure of being made a public specticle in front of many co-workers. He has lots of support from the gun friendly, but none whatsoever from the "regulators."

If I recall correctly, he was talking about a Braeda, and said that he had seen/heard that a patron was scared by seeing a printing/partially visible gun and didn't go in the the place. Also, as I recall, there was no proof of such incident.
Lorimor:
We all know that the anti's will oppose CCW for any possible reason they can find.
Holy smokes! The world hasn't ended, even after nearly 6 years of continuous CCW generated violence.
