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 |

TO REMEMBER |
| Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States. — Noah Webster in "An Examination into the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution," 1787, in Paul Ford, ed., Pamphlets on the Constitution of the United States, at p. 56 (New York, 1888). |
