WI Gov Jim Doyle's(D) Welcome statement. Call his office at 608-266-1212 and leave a message.

At the same time, what concerns the vast majority of Wisconsin families is keeping our kids and our communities safe. We are deeply concerned about the NRA's zealous support of legislation that would allow loaded, hidden guns at playgrounds, shopping malls, and school zones. The overwhelming majority of law enforcement in our state also vigorously opposes this NRA backed plan, fearing it will put our kids, our cops, and our communities at extreme risk.

"As the NRA gathers in Milwaukee, I'm challenging them to rethink their support for a proposal that is so strongly opposed by law enforcement and the vast majority of Wisconsin citizens. Instead of making it legal to carry a concealed weapon into a daycare center, we ought to be focused on ways to help middle class families afford to buy a home and enjoy all the good things life in our state has to offer."

Oh, yeah; I forgot - ""helping middle class families afford to buy a home and enjoy all the good things" is part of the Second Amendment, too. What a dope!

And they let him continue to stand the podium and talk. I think I would have interrupted and said. "Your 'help' is no longer needed. Please leave the premises unless you have a ticket."

Doyle is such a dope. Concealed carry permits are as common as grass in Pocatello. The courthouse, jails, K-12 schools and juvenile detention facilities are off limits. A simple, short list. His agenda is obvious with the use of the phrase "hidden guns". That's what concealed means. The object is to have a firearm if you need it and not to alarm every nervous nelly around you.
