Louisiana reciprocity

feeds@yuku.com (Immortality) — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 09:52:41 GMT

I'm possibly going on a trip to LA this spring and found the LA State Police did not have NE listed as a reciprocity state. I sent them an inquiry and this is the response I received. FYI to anyone heading south.

Moved out of State

feeds@yuku.com (aaronsegura) — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 09:13:12 GMT

Hello all,

I obtained my NE CCW permit almost two years ago, and just recently moved to TX. I called the NE state patrol to see what I have to do in order to file my change of address, as required by law, and the woman there said they would revoke my license since I moved out of state. I asked which statute authorizes them to do that and she couldn't cite one, but referred me to the lincoln office.

The way I read it, there is no authority to revoke my permit based on...

Guns on Amtrak

feeds@yuku.com (penname) — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 14:09:49 GMT

WASHINGTON (CNN) - The Senate voted Wednesday to allow licensed gun owners to transport their firearms when traveling on Amtrak. The 68 to 30 vote prohibits any federal funding of Amtrak unless it allows individuals to bring their guns on trains in a manner similar to that of airlines. The measure, sponsored by Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi, is an amendment to the Transportation and Housing appropriations bill.

The measure lays...

Unsettling thought about LB-430 for us out-of-staters

feeds@yuku.com (lincmercguy) — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 20:56:08 GMT

So I was thrilled to see CO made the list of states whose permits will be recognized in NE. I do have an unsettling thought about Omaha though. If I read the ordinance correctly, it would be illegal for me to carry in Omaha because my permit was not issued by the state of NE. I've also not found anything difinitive about Omaha's handgun registration for non-residents. Anyone have any thoughts? Here's the ordinance that I'm thinking about:

I got an email from a friend that got me investigating. I found this on House.gov. http://www.house.gov/apps/list/press/il01_rush/hr0045.pdf Given the current situation scrutiny is most definately due.

So will the Sotomayor vote be remembered at the polls?

feeds@yuku.com (homeatlast) — Fri, 07 Aug 2009 09:28:58 GMT

I want to first of all express my disdain for Mr. Nelson and all senators that voted for a jurist that would not stand for the right of self defense. I'm sure there are others of you that feel the same way. And, reading other firearm related forums, emotions are rife with anger towards the "traitors".

However, in the political cycle, it is still a long time until the elections. The American public has such a short memory, and in Mr. Nelson's case, we have to...

Aurora City Ordinance Question

feeds@yuku.com (jlficken) — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 10:24:31 GMT

According to Section 5 of the revised LB 430 does the following City Ordinance fall under the "null and void" clause so that it is invalid when the new Statute takes effect?

Edit: I just got this printed off this morning so it is the most current version and they plan on continuing to enforce it.

Any guess on what states CHP's we will honor or any rumors?

Just wondering if there are any rumors or ideas about what states have concealed carry permits we will honor in Nebraska, maybe we'll pick up some states that won't honor ours at the present time.

Friday, July 17, 2009 A vote to protect your right to travel out-of-state with a firearm could come to a vote next week -- even as early as Monday! Senators John Thune and David Vitter are the sponsors of S. 845 --

a bill that will establish concealed carry reciprocity amongst the several states. Senators Thune and Vitter offered the bill as an amendment (#1618) to the Department of Defense authorization bill (H.R. 2647).

No CC Cities - Updates?

Does anyone know if any of the anti-CC cities have changed their ordinances in light of LB 430? I'm currently under the assumption that most are going to be stubborn to the end.

Cap and Trade

feeds@yuku.com (CanUCatchMe) — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 21:41:37 GMT

Nancy Pelosi and the House Democrats have called for a floor vote on the dangerous, anti-growth "cap and tax" climate bill tomorrow.

As you've probably heard, this is one big, ugly proposal. It would require businesses to obtain government-issued ration coupons before they could emit greenhouse gases. If they emit above the level of their credits, they get taxed and pass the massive costs along to consumers.

It would create numerous regulations and spending...

With 65 votes yesterday -- including those of 8 Republicans -- Harry Reid successfully ushered yet another one of Obama's radical anti-gun zealot nominees closer to a final Senate confirmation vote.

I'm talking about Harold Koh, former Clinton flunky and current nominee to one of the State Department's highest positions -- the senior legal advisor to Secretary of...

Columbus City Council meeting last night

feeds@yuku.com (NETim) — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 10:13:06 GMT

Even though they weren't looking for public input, I went to the city council meeting anyway for the first of three readings of the proposed amendment to Columbus city code dealing with CCW.

Apparently my reputation as a CCW firebrand precedes me because the Mayor looked me up before the meeting and we chatted a little. His tone was conciliatory and almost apologetic. This isn't to say that he's changed his mind. I believe he's still opposed but he knows...

CCP Application Question - Have ticked for loaded shotgun...

feeds@yuku.com (toddwilson) — Sun, 31 May 2009 10:09:50 GMT

In December of 2008 a buddy of mine and I were hunting turkey and blackpowder deer in NE. We were stopped and licensed checked - no issues. However, each of us had two rounds in magazine of shotguns stored in cases under our rear seat. Just didn't occur to me that that qualified as a "loaded" gun. Learned lesson, paid fine, moved on with life. Now I would like to get a CCP so that I can carry when my wife and I travel on motorcycle. Does this ticket disqualify me for the next 9...
