When they are in caucus each respective party stays locked away to discuss ammendments and other parts of the proposal. In this case the Dems are probably trying to flip thier members that want to vote for the ccw and get them to vote against ccw. I am sure Dyole is pulling out all of the stops to try and prevent enough people from voting for the bill, in hopes he can sway enough to kill it here or just enough to remove the threat of a veto override if it does get approved. Partisan caucus can go on for a long time. |

We just need the Amendment 15 to pass thru the Senate because without Amendment 15 we don't have HUBLER (D) and we would be one short. We first need to get the same vote in Senate with the new Amendment, then we need to get everyone in Assembly to vote the same again.
Everyone call and thank those who voted for the bill, and ask for their continued support in the event of a veto override! |

...or school building (outside of a vehicle). This will probably suck most for someone who lives across the street from a school. Also added/changed from the Senate version: A 4-hour "refresher" class required before renewing, and lowering the allowable BAC for CCW to .02 (one beer and you'd be in violation). Most of you know how I feel about this bill. Link to Assembly Amendment 15 For future reference (GlennR  ):Direct link to Assembly Calendar with Video |

The NRA submited a letter stating that any amendments to the bill in the assembly were not wanted. Ya'll should read it if you can. I don't like that amendment I'm closer then that to school buses on a regular basis, Next to them at a traffic stop, drive past them parked by the school, drive past them on the road. Shit I'm a Felon by default when this bill passes..... These dumbfucks need to fix this shit in commitee. |

I drive past a fricken school on my way to and from work every day. Not to mention school busses. What an absolutely asinine amendment! People scared of their own shadow. Either give us CCW or don't. None of this in-between bullshit! If they don't get rid of these idiotic amendments I am not getting my CCW and I'd just as soon let it die, hoping for national CCW or the WI SC to finally get off their asses and give us AK or VT style CCW (fat chance). +1 on being pissed. |

NOOOOOOO we don't need that amendment to go through at all in the senate or the assembly. the bill is going to have to be worked out in a commitee now because of the diferances, I hope that this amendment will be removed then, this is bad bad bad bad bad amendment. Think about it, go for a walk have a school bus drive by you and guess what, you just commited a felony without wanting to, without trying to and most importantly, without even the intent to. |

Ok, I read through amendment 15. It sounds like it is legal to be carrying within 100 feet of a school or bus if you are in a vehicle, but not just walking past (still stupid). But in the amendment it says:
What does s.948.605 (2) (b) say? It doesn't describe what exception that is in the amendment linked by FMD. Not that it matters a whole lot, as I still think the amendment is BS, but I'm curious. |

The big selling points on Amendment 15 for Hubler was 0.02 BA, and additional training class. Black (D) brought up the same issues with the amendment that you are stating, but the feeling *I* got when listening to the arguements is that I think they are going to revise the wording, Gunderson didn't even comment on it.
I think what might need to be done is to add "knowingly" to the wording, meaning you would need to approaching the school, building, etc., and incidental contact with passing buses as you walk down the street wouldn't be a violation. I don't have a problem with the blood alcohol level lowering, in the past version of the bill we had zero tolerance. I also don't mind the additional training when renewing, it will give time for people to review changes to the laws, and refresh the memory. |

That wopuld create more problems. If I go for a walk, I walk right past Fratt school knowingly. So CCW passes with this amendment and I go for a walk and take my CCW I knowingly pass within 100 feet of a school building with a CCW I'm now commiting a felony for walking down a public sidewalk. That does not fly period at all end of story. I want CCW just as bad if not more so them everyone else, but I'm not willing to play these games. Sometimes it's just best to wait and sicne we barely have a 2/3 majoprity for the veto override without putting a lot of bullshit to keep those votes then maybe just maybe we should say fuck it, let it die, and lets come back after the next election......... |

Even if they added "knowingly" I wouldn't like it. I live in a small town and my wife and I like to go for walks regularly. Since it's a small town it's not hard to pass at least two different schools on a normal walk around my neighborhood. Therefore I would "knowingly" be carrying past school property if wanted to go for a walk carrying my CCW. Edit: LOL, photoman we must share part of the same brain. This is the second time you beat me to it!

I understand what you guys are saying, I just hope they can revise the wording so this works. Eliminating this amendment will kill our chances of a veto override. I don't know Zien/Gunderson's reasoning, or course of action... however, I don't think they would let something like that through unless they had a plan of attach to correct it.

+1 on the red. I don't think you're missing anything. Any and all "zero tolerance" policies are crap, and .02 might as well be zero-tolerance. I'm not advocating carrying while under the influence, but it's stupid to think that under this bill, I (or anyone else) would probably be in violation if I (or they) had one beer with a meal at Applebees while carrying. God help you if something goes bump in the night outside if you've had a shot of Nyquil. Now add in the school zone bullsh*t, along with all the other negative consessions that have been made in the original version of this year's PPA. Nope, I don't like it at all. ETA:
You have waaaay more faith than I do. |

Well my whole thing is the way the exception is worded in 948.605. That being that the permit has to be issued by the political subdivision of the state that the school system is in. My reson of course being that no political subdivision of the state is issueing permits, a STATE agency is. A state agency is not a political subdivision of the state. And I'm still confused about the whole BATF thing in there as well.... |

Well Amend. 15 adds some troubling stuff. We seem to be tetering so close to the 2/3s needed for veto over ride that one or two Reps can push for a lot of crap. Hopefully this will be at least further 'fine tuned' back at the Senate before another round for the Reps and THEN up for a veto.
At least the school bus thing excludes when you are in a vehicle. But if I'm walking down the side walk and school bus passes me, I'm a felon? Impossible to enforce, but still.  I notice the school bus thing says that it applies to buses owned by the school. Not sure how it is anywhere else, but where I went to school (Kenosha county) the buses were owned by a private company who contracted with the schools. No idea how I'm supposed to figure out who owns the school bus when I see one approaching, though. This has added enough crap that I'm not sure if I want it or not. Interested to hear some more opinions. Our alternative (IMO) would be to wait for a new Gov. So when is Doyle up for election? |

This is a very big thing. If we lose just 3 seats out of the 20, the PPA won't even come up for a vote. We need to pass this now, amendment 15 and all. Cross the damn street when you start to approach the school. The bus issue will be tweaked. |

Not increadibly worried aobut the bus issue, Racine unified only owns like four busses the rest are private. It's the 100ft of a school premis thing that pisses me off as well as the wording of the exception. And crossing the street is not a way to bypass it as in most cases yer still within that distance. As to the losing 20 repubs I had not know that till oyu posted it before. That doesn't really change things though. Becuase those 20 seats could all be in predominetly Repub districts. Hell were losing a repub and a dem that I know of down in Racine, in both cases a repub will go to the assembly. Which reminds me I have to talk to someone about working on his campaign. ETA: if this shit gets stripped out in commitee I won't have a problem with the bill I'll accept the damn LE database thing I don't and won't like it but I'll take th bill minus this new amendment. |

Good points, both. I wouldn't guarantee ousting Doyle for that matter.  I hate to see this bill keep getting worse and worse. IF we do lose seats in the upcoming elections - we could be stuck with it 'as is' for a long time. Nothing to prevent the Dems from making it worse or repealing entirely if Doyle stays in and the Dems gain some seats. I live across the street from a baseball park, so if a school bus parks across the street for a few hours - that could be a PITA as soon as I set foot off my property. Would it be better to have no PPA and stand on constitutional grounds if one chooses to carry? Let them try to prosecute you and push for a WI SC case? Lots of time, money and general PITA for both you and your family. I'm not sure myself right now.

The problem I see is without this amendment (w/ some verbage revisions) there is NO CCW. Personally, I'll take CCW w/ these school restrictions in leiu of nothing. Who says the WI Supreme Court is going to do anything soon, if at all. |
