there are no qualifications for gun ownership in Nebraska.
only a 5 states require a license for a shot gun, in the form of a Firearms ID. They require no coursework on training.
Typically you only need to take a gun safety class if you are buying a handgun, and even then only a dozen states require that.
So everyone in Nebraska is an unqualified gun owner.
legally. they are qualified.
according to your feelings? i guess not.
That is a big part of the American Problem.
do you live in Nebraska? you are welcome to move there and participate in their politics and change the laws.
but I don't think you're interested in doing that.
Moving to Nebraska is a pretty high cost for trying to improve the life expectancy of people who don’t want that
