Saw this on Fox 6 Milwaukee tonight. The libs know it's unstoppable.

It's been covered before.

Flynn's been on record supporting CCW for about the past year or so, knowing it'll pass, trying some lame hail-Mary's to see if they can tack private sales banned without FFL/NICS, ban gunshows etc.

Pound sand Flynn.

I generally like Flynn.  He has some things right, but having concealed carry without licensing is NOT the worst possible situation.  The worst situation is how it is right now.  It's not like the criminals will suddenly start carrying because now it is legal to do so.  They are already carrying, so it's time for me to carry too.  I just don't think he gets that.

I agree with the first thing he said. "Toughen the laws about possessing a firearm you're not entitled to."   This means, FELONS, or anyone else who cannot already own a firearm. Hope they don't skew it.

They need to focus on laws that prosecute the criminal, not laws that turn people into criminals.

Unfortunately, the "straw gun purchase" will F some private seller over who might be out of a job and trying to put food on the table by selling a shotgun he hasn't used for hunting in a while.

But honestly, if someone is knowingly buying guns for felons, they've probably been in trouble before and escaped the system some other way. (plea bargains etc.)

Some things I disliked;

They didn't state that open carry is legal, but seemed to suggest carrying a gun is illegal now.

Didn't state that it is a constitutional right.

List the number of other states that have CCW.

Said, not needing a CCW permit is a problem because "bad guys" are packing heat now, and getting away with misdemeanors.  Sounds like a problem somewhere else, nothing to do with CCW.

I know it's been covered here before, but what I find interesting is that the media, both radio and TV, has been covering CCW a lot recently. At least, it seems like it to me. As much as many of us suspect that it'll be in the first few years, I was surprised to hear the political analyst guy (who's undoubtedly a lib-tard from UW) say that he's reasonably sure it'll pass in the first 60 days. Just like everyone else, I'm excited to see what happens and will be picking out a CCW handgun and holster very, very soon.
