Christensen?s Castle Doctrine legislation gets attention during interim study hearing

The Imperial Republican

 

Senator Mark Christensen?s bill to address self defense issues at home and work, LB 889, got killed in this year?s session of the Unicameral but that doesn?t mean he?s giving up.

Prior to adjournment, Christensen got a legislative resolution passed to conduct an interim study on a key element of the bill, commonly know as the Castle Doctrine.

Christensen has built a reputation as a big advocate of Second Amendment gun rights. As a result, he wants to make sure people have the right to protect themselves in their homes, workplaces and vehicles without the threat of a civil lawsuit.

Hopefully, the reorg of language would inform those against it, in the issue of getting shot in the back who's to say that he would not be a distraction from the other person still in your home hiding and awaiting for the chance to cut someone throat and is using the other person as a method for you to let your guard down and then attack you.

I really hope this bill gets introduced again and passes.  Nebraska really needs to protect it's citizens with this bill.
