The liberal police chief bosses in Wisconsin are trotting out all the horseworn arguments against CCW. Never mind there has been no bloodbath in neighboring Minnesota. Why, we just can't trust average armed folks not to shoot cops! snort>

police chiefs are more united against the proposal than ever before.
Aren't most police chiefs appointed? Funny how appointed law enforcement officers seem to oppose CC and elected officials (like our Sheriff) seem to be in favor of it.

The threat to law enforcement by CCW holders is a myth. Why? Because we are law abiding.
I was pulled over last week, because my window tint appears to be too dark. (Its not in violation of the law, but it IS close, and I have been pulled over several times for it). As soon as the blue lights went on, I pulled over immediately and shut off the engine. Before the officer was out of his car, I had rolled down my dark window and placed my hands on the window ledge. As the officer approached, I called out "Good evening, Officer. I have a concealed firearm."
The officer stopped just behind the door pillar (like they are supposed to), and asked "Where is your firearm?" I told him that it was under my shirt in the small of my back, where I always carry. He asked me to hand him my pistol, and didn't seem to be overly concerned. I did as he asked, and he placed it on the roof of my truck.
He asked politely for my driver's license, insurance, and CCW. He tested my tinting with that little device they have, handed me back my documents and pistol, and bid me "Good evening, sir" after thanking me for the way I dealt with the stop and my firearm.
Police have absolutely nothing to fear from law-abiding citizens with CCW's.

Any person on the taxpayers payroll that doesn't support responsible and law abiding citizens right to protect themselves and their families should be summarily dismissed and removed from office. Politicians, LEO, judges, anyone.

"Data indicates states that added concealed carry policies did not seen crime go down, Kulik said. "
Wow, this is a nice reversal of the idea of a trade-off between liberty and security. Now you can't have liberty unless it actually increases security!

Shilling said more guns would not improve safety, especially for law enforcement officers who won't know if someone might have a gun.LEOs don't know if you're carrying a gun NOW!
Any law abiding concealed carry citizen will inform a LEO, when first approached, that they are carrying concealed.
