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.

From the ACLU website 'STOPPED ON THE STREET
· You do not have to answer questions.
· Say “I do not want to talk to you” and ask if you are free to go. If the answer is yes, walk away calmly.
· If the answer is no, ask why you are being detained. Police must have reasonable suspicion to detain you.
· You may be subject to a pat down search. Don't physically resist, but let them know that you don't consent to further search.
· It is not a crime in Wisconsin to refuse to identify yourself to a police officer, unless you are being detained or arrested, but refusing might make the police suspicious about you.'

Wow so after looking things up I find that this is the Alder for my district
From what we can tell her term is through 2011.
This is very depressing.

Write her, let her know you are her constituent, that you support OC and you are not happy with her dismissive tone.

Sent my letter to Alder Jed Sanborn, dsitrict 1. My impression of him in the past was that he was not as "progressive" as the majority of the council.
"Alder Sanborn,
I would like to bring to your attention the recent Madison Police news release. http://www.cityofmadison.com/news/view.cfm?news_id=2231##
This policy opens the door for the police to illegally bypass the US constiution regarding 1st, 4th, 5th, and obviously the 2nd amnedments on LEGAL activity they decide they don't agree with. The state constitution also has similar protections. It may be "open Carry" they target today, but what next?
There are a lot of things that make all different kinds of people uncomfortable, but as long as no law is actually being broken, the police should leave it be.
I thought Madison was a city based on freedom - freedom of thought, freedom of expression. Well, the police can't pick and choose which freedoms law abiding citizens choose to excercise.
As my elected alder, please do not let my beloved Madison become a police state. You have sworn to uphold the constitution, as has Chief Wray and his officers. If you love freedom, you should embrace ALL freedoms, or none of them mean anything.
Thanks for your time,"

Working on it. Unfortunately the tone from her feels like the tone I hear from a lot of 'typical' Madisonians and makes me feel like writing is pointless. It probably is but at least I will have 'done something' other than fume.

New Madison paper story 9/22 9:00 PM
http://host.madison.com/wsj/news/lo...cle_26e20b12-c6b4-11df-9b03-001cc4c002e0.html
Sounds like the city attorney and police chief can't agree on the charges.... even though they are both wrong. Looks more and more like a messed up CYA situation for the city.

The Follow Up
I caught wind of this yesterday and it's been the talk of Baraboo.
Looks like we have a follow up to this.
http://www.nbc15.com/home/headlines/103538179.html
See you guys on Saturday.
Edit, sorry fliper, it appears you have the same follow up just for another source.
BTW, I did love some of those comments on the original story.

It's great when attorneys from other states recognize how ridiculous the charges are.
I also just listened to the audio again. The police at the incident were very willing to let those that showed ID to go about their business. Then four days later they decide that it's disorderly conduct? What crap.

Wow march hare, It is truly amazing that your avatar is the exact same design as the LEO's on the website:http://www.apbweb.com/forums/news-5/2-wi-carry-members-ticketed-43027/
Hmmm, is that a coincidence or what? Some how I doubt that.

Considering that is the standard QR Code for the NRA, I don't find it odd at all: http://www.nra.org is what it decodes to.
