Anti-CCW and Pro-CCW businesses listing

We will need to put alot of weight behind LB 88 in addition to Castle Doctrine. Perhaps Senator Fulton would make LB 88 his priority bill this next session? From what i got from the hearing Ashford did seem "understanding" in regards why Christensen brought LB 88.
Also, why is the Applebees in Bellevue on the "no ccw" list? I have always carried there and never seen a sign at the doors. The Burger Kings in Bellevue i'm not 100% sure on but they did remove their signs from all three Bellevue locations at one point or another. I ate there several times this summer at two of the locations and there were no signs. I haven't been at BK for several weeks though and i did notice some new sticker that was placed back in the spot where the old signs were while driving by. So i'm not sure if they have reposted or not. I will have to check again sometime.
The Burger King near Oakview Mall in Omaha next to Bag N' Save however is posted and has one sign at the front entrance but not at the "back" entrance which I discovered after having already entered the restaurant through the back entrance whilst ordering my meal. A friend and I went there for breakfast after my work shift was over and I was still dressed in my work (security) uniform. I decided to open carry because I wanted to show my friend that I wouldn't get any attention because I look like an "only one". After having noticed the sign I became afraid but came to the conclusion that I looked like I was an "only one" and people probably wouldn't care so we sat down and ate our food. As expected, nobody said a word. I was also open carrying so technically speaking i was not violating the CHP Act....am i right?..............plus I entered the restaurant seeing no sign when i walked in so I thought I was clear.

Let's flood them in Lincoln!!

What is the organization working on in terms of legislative proposals? Why isn't there a discussion area for 2012 legislation?

We have several new items we have been discussing with Senators and among the Board. Alot of the discussions have been about what it will take to get some of these things passed. Everything that was proposed last year and not passed or indefianatly postponed is still on the table for this year as well as a couple of new items. We will be posting the 2012 legislation as it gets proposed, part of why we do not post htings early is we do not want those who would oppose our bills to have the extra time to prepare, and many of those items will not make it to a bill this year.
As far as what we work on we get those ideas from the comments you folks make here as well as the conversations we have with members at gunshows members meetings ect. We also discuss some of these things with other organizations Natioanlly so we can learn from their actions and see what kind of opposition they face and plan to overcome it.

Oh, I was under the impression that the "2011 Legislation" topic was restricted to members only and not viewable by others...

It is but with the anonymity of the internet (and we purposely allow as much as possible) there is no real way of telling "who" anyone really is our what their true positions are. So we choose to play some things close to the vest until things are in a position that they are moving before we have open discussion.
If you follow the Board Meeting Scheduals and Minutes you have a pretty good idea what we have been discussing. Remember due to multiple things not everything we bring up or members bring up is even able to become a proposed bill at the initial time, but we keep notes on things and bring them back when the time is right.
