I hate to see the various compromises going on, but whatever's necessary to shove Doyle's veto where the sun don't shine is OK with me.
On the few occasions where I have been pulled over by a cop, I keep my hands in view, advise him that my permit is in my wallet and that my firearm is on my hip. I do that for MY protection because I don't want him to find out by surprise and possibly draw down on me out of an unfounded fear. As for the cops, it's not folks who are legally armed that they need to be worrying about.
That's like half of Wisconsin isn't it? (3/4ths in Cudahy)
Under the measure, whenever an officer runs the registration of a vehicle he stops, a screen would pop up alerting him if the owner has a permit to carry a concealed weapon, said Casey Perry, executive director of the Wisconsin Troopers Association.
--no agenda in that statement, is there?
Not that facts matter to ignoramuses, but CCW-holders have a lower rate of criminal conduct than law officers and clergymen, to name just a couple of categories of potential criminals.
Doyle vetoed photo ID for voting but has required photo ID for purchasing cold medicine. Our Gov is bot and paid for by Casino, Trial Lawyers, Teachers Unions and the loony left.
If a cop knows he's pulling over a CC permit holder, all he knows is he's pulling over someone who took the time to be legal and is less likely than others to misuse his gun.
How do the cops in Florida survive day to day not knowing if a car has a gun in it?
Drivers can carry in their vehicles without a permit.
But, hey, if this will help pass the PPA, I can accept this compromise.
"It doesn't change the fact the governor doesn't think people should be carrying weapons around," Fonder said.
Like we expect him to sign it into law... *snort!*
We're gunning for a successful override.
"Under the measure, whenever an officer runs the registration of a vehicle he stops, a screen would pop up alerting him if the owner has a permit to carry a concealed weapon, said Casey Perry, executive director of the Wisconsin Troopers Association.
"This way we would know before we approach the vehicle," Perry said. "We think it's a safety issue for the people that we stop, as well as the officers. It is major because it's a deal breaker for us."
Makes sense to me. That way the police will know if a criminal was stupid enough to apply for and receive a concealed carry permit.
"Whut? 'scuse me ossifer, while I whup this out . . "

Camels nose?
First step in registering all gun owners.
Not good!
They could not stand the foregoing of sticking a finger in the eye of this law...as usual what they demand will not do one single thing to protect the street cop..the rank and file...not one stinking thing...they simply have to have a say in this so they can say they screwed with tax paying loyal honest citizens demands...and got to ride roughshod (at least a little) over our Constitutional and God given rights once again..
However anything that forces Doyle & Lautenschlagger to do the will of those who pay his salary rather than the Marxists who pull their strings is OK by me too.
God bless and protect those cops who love our country and it's Constitution and who will stand up for those honest citizens right to self and family protection
Lord knows that in the face of the criminal evil scum coming at us from south of the border (even in my little rural WI town) we are going to need all the decent cops and folks we can muster..
The Washington and Madison of our day (DC & WI) are certainly not interested in watching out for us in fact it almost seems to the contrary.
IMO
