LR191 Castle Doctrine Interim Study - introduced by Sen. Christensen May 18th
bkoenig:
You know what would be neat? A "Take your Senator Shooting" day. Maybe it's a dumb idea, but it would be a fun way to say thank you to those who support us.
AFVet1982:
I sent an email earlier this morning to Sen. Abbie Cornett (my rep in the Uni) asking her to consider either introducing (I hadn't seen this posting at the time) or co-sponsoring a Castle Doctrine bill. My specific request included home, vehicle, watercraft, and locations providing shelter/protection as does a home. I also suggested including language to release a homeowner/defender from liability for injury/death resulting from a "Castle Doctrine use-of-force" encounter, placing that same liability on the "invader" (to include estate and heirs in case of fatal injury), and placing a positive burden of proof on the BG to show that he was on the property "legally." My email was a bit verbose, but if anybody is interested, I'll PM them a copy.
Hope this helps to get the system moving on the issue.

Them naming the bill that and the title of the article do not paint the idea in a positive light at all.
However I thought the newspaper did a good job of showing opposing viewpoints within the article itself. Other then the title and first sentence, the article is OK. Comments of course, are mixed.

It could have been better but the article was ok I guess.
I wish I had a Senator like him here in S.W. Omaha.
