I was there during the oral arguments.
I'll post details later, maybe tomorrow (watching History Channel M16 right now).
But, IMHO, the question is not whether sec. 941.23 Stats. is unconstitutional, but what to do with it.
I was firmly prepared to walk out of the chambers today with my head hanging thinking that we're screwed, but using words like "absurd" and reference to 941.23 "swallowing the constitutional amendment" were common.
If you're going to listen to either argument, listen to Hamden. His attorney played it safe to his clients benefit, but our detriment (proper tactics from Hamden's perspective). But I think the WI SCt. sees the obvious problems.
I believe that SOMETHING GOOD will come out of these decisions for concealed carry in WI. I DO NOT think that the status quo will be maintained.
Governor elect Jim "gun grabber" Doyle might think that the Personal Protection Act is mild compared to the results of these cases....
More later, but listen to the opinions.
EDITED to say that even the solution proposed by Hamden's attorney (pro bono from a big WI firm) would pretty much allow unfettered concealed carry, though you'd have a defense in front of a jury (i.e., you could still get charged).
