Just goes to show who is loyal here and who is not. I would like to think that while WCI is not directly involved in his defense, I am sure they are involved behind the scenes in other ways.
Wisconsin Carry, as an organization has no involvement in this case.
Wisconsin Carry advocates for the right of people to carry in the manner of their choosing. This case does not involve an issue of the right to carry in any manner.
When people exercise their human-right to defend themselves with deadly force, they may well find that they will have to justify that use of deadly force. If people are carrying in Wisconsin and they are not aware of Wisconsin's laws governing the use of deadly force, we strongly recommend they study those laws.

With respect to laws governing the use of deadly force, Wisconsin Carry believes that Wisconsin residents deserve the protection of "Castle Doctrine" laws which the residents of 31 states enjoy. We believe the lack of a Castle Doctrine law is yet another demonstration of Wisconsin's being decades behind the times with regard to the rights of law-abiding citizens. We do not however have any reason to believe the issues of this case involve Castle Doctrine principles.
As with any case we believe that people have a right to a fair trial by a jury of their peers. Our only comment with regard to the Gonzalez case is that we believe the media has unfortunately chosen to focus their attention on the open-carry aspect which has no bearing on the case rather than the heart of the issue in this case which is self-defense and the use of deadly force.
We recognize the reality that media priority in the current era is focused on sensationalism and selling their "news product" over fact-finding and objective reporting but as with any case, we hope that the legal process IS focused on fact-finding and reason and that Mr. Gonzalez is able to obtain a fair trial by a jury of his peers. It is our observation that many people on this forum who know Mr. Gonzalez personally can attest to a much different perspective of his character than that which has been portrayed in the media.
