It has been held for years that children under 12 cannot hunt in Wisconsin. In fact, the Hunting regulations Http://www.dnr.state.wi.us/org/land/wildlife/regs/deer07.pdf state on page 12:
"Persons under the age of 12 may not possess a firearm or hunt unless participating in a DNR Learn to Hunt event or Hunter Education Course."
State Constitution ArticleI Section 25 States:
"The people have the right to keep and bear arms for security, defense, hunting, recreation or any other lawful purpose."
Doesn't that create a contradiction?
I understand they can control HUNTING, but why can't I take my 8 Yr old to the range and educate him/her about firearms? Wouldn't this violate his/her constitutional rights? How would you suggest challenging this?
