The Second Amendment to the Bill of Rights enumerate my God-given right to be armed at all times for defense of self, family and country;
Section 25 of the Wisconsin Constitution protects the right to keep and bear arms without respect to where I may travel, whether in my vehicle or near a school zone;
Vehicle disarmament laws force me to unload my gun while traveling, leaving me vulnerable to car-jacking or other assaults;
School Zones were ruled unconstitutional in U.S. v. Lopez and these laws create a patch work of legalized entrapment for armed citizens and “criminal safe zones” for thugs;
Therefore, I urge you to uphold your sworn oath of office to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States by sponsoring and supporting legislation to
1) Repeal laws that force me to unload and case my sidearm while traveling in a vehicle in the State of Wisconsin.
2) Remove the patchwork of School Zones and related gun bans so armed citizens may travel freely, without fear of crossing into a “criminal safe zone” and face prosecution.
3) Repeal Wisconsin’s ban on carrying concealed weapons.
WGO urges you to support both a voluntary “Shall-Issue” permit-to-carry system and a “Vermont-Style” concealed carry provision. The former would allow Wisconsin citizens to travel to other states which enjoy concealed carry reciprocity via a permit-to-carry. The latter would strike the ban on Carrying Concealed Weapons (CCW) from the books yet would not require citizens to get a permit if they choose to exercise their right to bear [concealed] arms. This concealed carry system mirrors the Alaskan model.
