Some highlights:

Deputy Attorney General talking about suing to get access to DRAFT version of the bill, essentially because "but the NRA got to see it, and we should too!!".  Shithead.

Here is a related article.  LE is our friend, and if we would just help them get national CCW, they would soften up opposition to citizen CCW.  Right?....................RIGHT?
..................."We simply do not see a correlation between more guns on the street and a safer Wisconsin," Village of Oregon Police Chief Doug Pettit said at the news conference.

Pettit heads the legislative committee of the Wisconsin Chiefs of Police Association, which represents most of the 600-some municipal police executives in the state.

At least the WI Sheriffs and Deputy Sheriffs Association is on the fence.  Last time they opposed it vigorously.  Why?  Because they didn't want to spend budget dollars to enable us to exercise our rights.

I sure hope we get CCW. It's about frickin' time.

On a related note, anyone see the local Madison news last night where they were talking about how Madison police were doing a "gun buyback"? What complete idiots!!!

If you call the police and tell them you have a gun, they will come and pick it up and give you a...wait for it...wait for it...$50 DOLLAR GIFT CERTIFICATE TO THE MALL!!!

Woooohooooo!!!! A $50 dollar gift certificate! I can't wait to call up the Madison PD and have them come and take my new Kimber Custom TLEII/RL away so I can get my $50 dollar gift certificate!

How stupid do they think people are?

T on the other hand is going to get a case of ammo out of the deal the way it sounds!

This appears to be a situation where special interests are being afforded a role in the legislative process and the rest of us are being frozen out of it. - Dan Bach, deputy attorney general

Special interests?  

Suck it Bach!

How about that little special interest you have on your side called the Wisconsin Anti-Violence Effort (WAVE)?

Since the year 2000 they've been averaging a quarter million a year from the Joyce Foundation.  Being frozen out?  My ass!

Best of luck to you 'Sconsin guys.
