In State of Wisconsin v. Munir A. Hamdan, 264 Wis. 2d 433 (2003), the Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled that Hamdan’s constitutional right to bear arms had been violated, overturning his conviction for violating the law. Hamdan, the owner of a family-run grocery store in a high-crime neighborhood in Milwaukee, routinely kept a loaded gun under the counter near the cash register. In addition to numerous violent criminal incidents outside the store, his premises had been the target of four armed robberies in recent years. In one, the assailant’s gun misfired when the trigger was pulled, sparing Hamdan’s life. In another, he shot and killed a robber in self-defense. In the incident at issue, he was in the process of putting the gun in storage for the night when he was discovered by police to be carrying it in his pants pocket. The court found that the statute could not be constitutionally applied in this situation because Hamdan’s personal interest in having a concealed weapon in his store outweighed the state’s interest in enforcing the statute:
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.
The court went on to state that a Wisconsin resident has the right to carry a concealed weapon on his or her property, business, or

home, when: 1) the need to exercise this right is significant, 2) the person has no other reasonable means to keep and handle the weapon, and 3) the person was not motivated by any unlawful purpose in concealing the weapon.

Hmmm..... I was born in Vernon county..... I have eaten roadkill.... BUT I am fussy about it. It's got to be fresh and I don't think I'd eat Opossum; but Deer and a grouse I hit once....Yummy.
Wait, whoops, we weren't talking about roadkill. Well, still; I wouldn't eat opossum. Racoon is not too bad though.
:lol:
Scary looking and not delicious looking:

brass, your pic brought to mind an empisode of trek, the original series, where McCoy was teasing Spock over having a pet as a child. Spock burned him good with: Doctor, on Vulcan the teddy bears are live, and have 6 inch fangs.

this just handed me; fellow business guy across the street from me at the shop, after going to his vehicle, curbside, school zone, to put his unloaded encased into his vehicle, turned back toward his business; almost got pearl harbored by 3 of them who pinned him and wanted money, something scared them off at the last moment. friquin school zones, friquin criminals. it's that close.

By the way, when it comes to Wisconsin hunting laws,
That makes Possum the "Anytime treat"

I found a similar recipe. Down on the bottom of the page in very fine print, it read.
Throw away the 'possum, stuffing, and juices. Find the nearest Culver's and get a Burger, Fries, and Shake.
