This is just dumb, further proof that this great state for gun laws is having blue influences in its major city.

In Omaha they now want to pass a bill that would require finger printing for sales of guns to large retailers, that aren't pawn shops. So if I wanted to go trade my Springfield XD to get another gun at Scheels, the city ordinance would require that I get fingerprinted and that the record of that transaction remains on file, indefinitely, to be reviewed without warrant. Well, if it starts there, what would stop them from imposing laws that would require all transactions of firearms be finger printed? Time to fight!

Nebraska: Omaha Seeking to Require Fingerprinting for Firearm Sales!

Tuesday, June 23, 2009


Please Stand-Up and Make Your Voices Heard!

This afternoon, the Omaha City Council will consider an ordinance that would require individuals wishing to sell firearms to "secondhand stores," such as Scheels, Guns Unlimited, and other places (which are not pawnbrokers), be fingerprinted before the transaction can occur. The ordinance would also require store owners to keep these fingerprints on record and authorizes law enforcement to inspect those records without notice or warrant.

If passed, this could lead to future ordinances requiring fingerprinting for all firearm transactions.

The meeting will be held at 2:00 p.m. in the Legislative Chambers of the Omaha City Council located at 1819 Farnam St. in Omaha.

Please take the time to attend today’s hearing and stand-up against this unwarranted ordinance. If are unable to attend, please contact the members of the City Council and respectfully voice your opposition to this measure. Contact information can be found below.
