So CCW is legal now ?????????
What the heck is is with these guys like Gene German. Can you believe he was on Vicki McKenna today trying to take credit for this?
It ain't his arse in the sling here, rather 5 WCI members. Then we get the NRA still wanting mandated training JUST LIKE German.
I say we send ALL these "out-of-state" lobbyists back home.
Somebody go tell German "this ain't MN, we actually HAVE 'right-to-carry' already!"
Then go tell the NRA the same thing. The boat has tipped over and the ccw ban is sinking fast. These "out-of-state" groups are rushing in to make a quick buck at our expense. I say kick them out!
Wisconsin for Wisconsin, NRA and German be damned!
BTW: German's resolution idea fell FLAT ON IT'S FACE. It wasn't the NRA, or German that brought this about, it was ordinary WISCONSIN residents.
In Clark County at least. Read the other thread for Nik's take on it. http://forum.opencarry.org/forums/s...m-WIBA-news-team-quot-Also-just-a-heads-up-Pa
I had really hoped that I would not see all those misspelled words and other grammatical errors in Germans piece, It makes us as a class of people look undereducated, ignorant and of generally low intelligence when the self-proclaimed leader of carry rights in WI (who happens to be a MN resident) has such difficulty spelling common words.
genie is spelled as Jennie, Etc Etc Etc.
Any "open carry movement" that started in a hotel meeting room in March 2007 must have been stillborn. The open carry movement that actually made a difference and has something to show for it-- was born with an Apgar score of 10 in a house near Burlington in April 2009.
Not so fast, the court document reads:
STATE OF WISCONSIN
CIRCUIT COURT
CLARK COUNTY
STATE OF WISCONSIN
Plaintiff/Petitioner
That means the State of Wisconsin, it was only tried in the Clark county state court. I think this court decision could be binding throughout the state. IANAL, but I think I could be correct here. It is a state court. Granted it would be even better if it is appealed and won again. But it still has precedence.
I agree, that is why I said to look at the other thread. WCI's lawyers believe it does apply statewide but not to get too excited until an appeal decision is made.
I would be careful with your word choice.
If upheld on appeal one of our attorneys believes it is a broad strikedown of the CCW statute that would be applicable statewide.
RIGHT NOW, I don't think anyone anywhere else in the state should be hanging their hat on this decision and CC'ing.
Fortunately for Clark County, they have only 1 circuit court judge, so this judge is teh ONLY judge that will hear a CCW case in Clark County and it seems logical you can expect the same ruling if you carry concealed in clark county and get charged.
I will edit my post. What I had said in some other posts was that they should go read your response in the other thread.
Nope I still believe that this case has precedence state wide. It is a state court and the judges decision can influence other cases in other counties as well.
So you know more than the WCI attorney I guess?
