What is this some sort of Hiku?

We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

I believe the "her" is you. I was quoting a post by Shotgun on another forum.

Oh, that was back in July. That's why I thought there was another incident with someone else recently, when you said it was within the last week. Oops.

so the easy solution is to quit "transporting" your firearms and start "bearing" them. No?
How can you bear your arms when 167.31 and 941.23 prevent you from doing so while in your vehicle on public roads?

and there in lies the problem. State constituition says "for other lawful purposes". So is it really just that easy to outlaw blondes from owning guns and then bingo they lose that right because it is no longer "legal".
Maybe one could "live out of your car" as the court has shown that your right to security outweighs the state's attempt to restrict it within your private residence.
"“If the constitutional right to keep and bear arms for security is to mean anything, it must, as a general matter, permit a person to possess, carry and sometimes conceal arms to maintain the security of his private residence or privately operated business,
and to safely move and store weapons within these premises.” - Wisconsin Briefs January 2004
or bear arms while you are deliver newspapers from your car as your privately operated business?

yes and I think the key here is stated "As well, the state concedes that Defendant Vegas was not concealing his weapon for an unlawful purpose."
To me, this is the difference between "transporting your firearm" and "bearing arms for self protection".
Here is the interesting thing we've discussed here before, since the Constitutional Amendment in 1998, we've all been wondering if those old laws are still in effect. No one has yet to be a "test case." There have been a few issues over the last (almost) 2 years, but none of the lawsuits ever went to the state supreme court (yet).
Easy
There is at least one exception to 941.23 as the Hamdan case showed. Not an extensive one but there it is. As for the newly purchased gun, etc., the rules of statutory construction do not require an absurd result. Furthermore, police know what the outcome of arresting every innocent purchaser would be, so they don't. Maybe somebody should develop a transparent gun safe. If the law were as simple as reading the words of a statute, we could hire secretaries instead of judges.
