A bill that would have barred Nebraska towns and cities from enacting stricter limits on guns than state law allows was pulled from the legislative agenda on Monday after facing stiff opposition from the state's two largest cities. Its sponsor, Sen. Mike Hilgers of Lincoln, withdrew it to work more on legislation that he hopes will bring the city of Lincoln and the League of Nebraska Municipalities on board. He said he's running out of time to fix his gun bill's language this year because lawmakers expect to end the session early next week, but he intends to bring it back early next year. |

Cowards.
It is precisely because of the attitude of those cities that such legislation is critical |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
