Nebraska gunowners insist parks aren’t private property when it comes to concealed weapons

Four Nebraska gun owners are suing Lincoln, arguing the city lacks authority to ban concealed weapons in parks and trails under a 2023 state law allowing constitutional carry. The city claims the law did not remove its power to regulate firearms on its property, while plaintiffs assert public spaces are not private property. The case involves conflicting interpretations of Legislative Bill 77, which permits concealed carry without a permit.
