Which of the following locations is it illegal to carry a firearm in Nebraska?

Restaurants that serve alcohol
Places of worship
Schools and school-sponsored events
Public parks during daylight hours

The correct answer is: Schools and school-sponsored events

Carrying a firearm in schools and at school-sponsored events is illegal in Nebraska due to specific laws aimed at ensuring the safety and security of students and educational environments. The prohibition extends to any public or private school, as well as events that are associated with the school, regardless of the location. This restriction is part of a broader legal framework that recognizes the need to maintain safe learning environments, which has been underscored by concerns around gun violence in such spaces. In contrast, other locations may have differing regulations regarding carrying firearms. For instance, while there are restrictions on carrying in restaurants that serve alcohol and places of worship, laws are more flexible regarding public parks, especially during daylight hours. However, schools are held to a much stricter standard, reflecting a consensus that the presence of firearms in these specific settings could pose significant risks.
