Having a loaded handgun in a vehicle restriction was removed under 167.31. For whatever reason, some people think that 941.23 pertains to vehicles (especially since a vehicle is classified as your castle under 895.62).

IANAL

Some people like the WI Legislative Bureau, WI DOJ, WI Attorney General, and even our representatives who voted on Act 35... :dude:

The reality is that there is zero basis to believe that it would not apply to vehicles. You will find the word "CASTLE" nowhere in any applicable WI Statutes or Administrative code. You do however find an exception to 941.23 for
dwelling or place of business or on land that he or she owns, leases, or legally occupies.
Your vehicle is not typically your "dwelling" and definitely not your Castle, whatever that may be.. :cool:

It is not so much that it becomes concealed as that a CHL is required to carry concealed or to carry loaded in a car. This is almost the exact situation we had when I lived in Alabama.

I see. That explains the strange situation. We don't have that here in Virginia. You can carry open or conceal in your vehicle, with or without a permit (if without a permit and concealed, the gun can be in the glove box or console, just not on your person).

Since the OP is inquiring about WI law and this thread is now in the WI forum, I would suggest that any continued questions regarding Ohio or Virginia, etc law be made in which of those forums is appropriate.

If someone responds to me about Ohio, I'll respond to him.

Ohio was being discussed in this thread long before anyone decided to move it to Wisconsin.

If a member of the staff feels strongly that this should be about Wisconsin, they can split out the other posts and move them back into the non-State-specific area where it was.

This thread did not start out being about Wisconsin. Trying to force it to be is a bit ham-handed.

That is a major flaw I see in both Alabama and Ohio. I am a proponent of UC (unlicensed carry). Rules restricting carry in a car to licensees infringes on UC and, therefore, the 2A.

I look forward to the day when we can carry everywhere (except where property owners are exercising their right) without a permission slip. I don't care if they restrict concealment, as long as I can carry.

OP never mentioned his State, and there were several responses before anyone mentioned Wisconsin.

So, we should just scrap those discussions???

There are tools to split discussions. If a staff member really cared about handling this right, he'd split the discussion, and move the non-Wisconsin discussion back to the non-Wisconsin area where it started.

Or he could move the whole thing.

But, kill the rest of the appropriately started discussions? Ham-handed.

There would be no reason to split the thread off as the questions asked appear to have been answered. Note that I mentioned "continued" questions.
It most definitely started with the OP asking about WI. This being the case, the Admins properly moved the thread here to the WI forum and not to the Ohio forum. I politely suggested that continued Ohio, etc discussions be continued in their State forums. This makes absolute sense since WI residents will not be intimate with Ohio, etc law and Ohio, etc residents would be assured of seeing the inquiry and those knowledgeable would be afforded the opportunity to assist. Insisting on keeping Ohio, etc discussion in a WI forum thread is just plain silly.

The OP said nothing about Wisconsin. That rightly prompted a lot of responses from a lot of States. To cut all of those discussions off is ham-handed.

Do you consider all moderation to be "ham handed"? Nobody has cut off any discussions prematurely. The other side bars have run their course. The suggestion is to continue future questions in their appropriate forum. Are you being deliberately daft?

Nope, just the unreasonable overmoderation, which occurs a bit much here lately.

Nice name-calling. Speaks well of you and the site.

You accused me of being "daft," asking if I was being so deliberately. I suggest you become familiar with the language, including linking verbs and adjectives, and what they communicate.

So, again, nice name-calling. Such behavior speaks well of you and the site.

I questioned your motivation. I was asking if you were being deliberately foolish. In other words if you were trolling. I didn't call you daft. I do believe that it is silly to claim over moderation simply because I suggested that Ohio discussions will be more productive in the Ohio forum. This is not equal to calling you a silly person. Drama much? I am not a moderator and I did not demand that you do anything. How is that heavy-handed over-moderation? It is a common sense suggestion. Lighten up, Francis.

You decidedly did call me daft, using that precise word.

You could apologize, but you decide to try to redefine what you said and defend it, making it seem that, by calling you on that behavior, somehow my behavior is the problem. Just recognize that you did something wrong, apologize for your actions, and move on. If you keep trying to defend what you said, I will keep rebutting your defense.

Name-calling by you does not speak well of you or the site.

Are you being deliberately daft? Are you daft? See the difference?

Yes, one is asking if I am. The other is assuming the state and asking if it is by choice. Both are insulting, the former being more so.

I see that no apology is forthcoming. Your choice. But name-calling does not speak well of you or the site. If you continue to defend the insult, I will continue to rebut. If you stop (or, better yet, apologize), then this can end. Of course, you can follow in the footsteps of another and go nuclear for the "win." Again, your choice.

If eye95 isn't OT arguing something silly he isn't happy. He, by being so argumentive, doubles the post count of every thread he comments in.

I am merely responding to those who respond to me or, in your case, about me. It is entirely up to you whether this bit of OT ends. But, I would say this side discussion of yours about OT is, ironically, OT. Throwing stones might not be your best option. Unless your house is made of a different kind of glass than everyone else's, in which case, I will defer to your specialness.

You win... I apologize for using the word daft when questioning your motivations. I am done participating in this thread hijack... I do not post for the sake of arguing, so I am not motivated by a need to "win" in a thread..
