I dropped off a copy of the signage requirement with some suggestions at the Lincoln Children's Zoo today.  Also mentioned that they are only keeping law-abiding citizens out and not criminals.  Since we're members I left my name and contact info if they have any questions.  Will be interesting to see if they respond.  My issue is that the sign at the front entrance is not clearly visible when you are approaching or entering through one of the other booths not connected to the gift shop.  Well, that and the fact that they are posted at all, but I digress...

Anyone know if Zio's is a protection-free zone?  I did a search and nothing came up.

Zio's at 132nd & Center and the Dodge street location are not posted (or weren't around Christmas and 2 weeks ago, respectively).

Schaefer's TV and Appliance in Lincoln is now CHP friendly!

I told them Thanks today and that I would not have spent $1800 in their store if that sign had not been removed.

Now I need to go set up my fathers day present  :P

That's good news!  Did they say why they decided to change?

They said that they have had many complaints about it, but did not elaborate. I am not sure how long ago this happened as I have been avoiding doing any business there

There is a list on the main site called unfriendly business list. I believe this link will get you there: http://nebraskafirearms.org/unfriendly-business-list/

I'm not sure how up to date it is kept, but it's a good place to start.

I believe it is listed (too lazy to check thru all the topic) but Nebraska Furniture Mart is VERY posted.  WE stopped there a while back, went into "Mrs. B's" to check on matresses prices.  My 12yo daughter remarked on the way out the door " Dad did you see those signs on the door?"  "Yes sweetheart I did, That's why we will not be buying matresses here."  " I figured so" she replies.  Awww They learn so quickly.  ;)

Has anyone contacted the powers that be at NFM, if so, what kind of response was received?

Nash Finch has bought Bag 'N Save and No Frills Grocery stores. Bag 'N save isn't posted but No Frills is. I went to the "contact us" asking about removing the posted signage from No Frills and sharing they may gain more customers if they remove the signs. http://www.nashfinch.com/contact.cfm is the website in case you want to send them an encouragement to remove signage email.   ;D

I think buffet is the type that guns for me is ok.   Guns for you are bad.   He took a tour of my work several years ago and had armed guards with him.

Carpetland in Lincoln just east of 27th, south of Superior has a small sign on their door saying "No Concealed Weapons".  Was there yesterday.

The No Guns sign is gone from the door of our local (Plattsmouth) No Frills..... I thought it had something to do with the fact that Hy-Vee is opening a store here soon...... competition is going to get fierce!
The Right to Keep and BEAR Arms is enshrined explicitly in both our State and Federal Constitutions, yet most of us are afraid to actually excercise that Right, for very good reason: there is a good chance of being arrested........ and  THAT is a damned shame.  III.

Here is one for your consideration...

I carry a gun because a cop is too heavy.  I carry a lot of ammo because I cant run very fast.

Wow.  If you miss that sign.  You need to get your weapon confiscated.

How might I ask are they going to "confiscate" your weapon?  Would not be a pretty sight.....

Rivers Metal Products in Lincoln is posted, but it's on a tinted window and hard to see.

I don't think this has been mentioned yet, but the YMCA Spirit Park behind State Farm at 84th & O is posted. It is not what I would consider "conspicuous" when you walk in. It is more visible when you are leaving.


On a related note, would a Google map showing where all the Anti-CCW businesses are located be helpful?
