Tons of guns here in Wisconsin... Mostly long guns as you stated at least up North here, but plenty of arms and ammo nonetheless. As for handguns, we SHOULD have CCW permits and IIRC we’ve been trying to get that changed for a few years now... Not helpful having a Democrat for a governor though. He’ll raise our taxes till the cows come home, but doesn’t want people to be able to defend themselves... go figure...
Ok. I just knew about the ccw problem. This is so tragic but bad things happen sometimes. I hate it when people use rare occurrences to try to promote their agenda though, don’t you?
SOP for the modern Demoncrat. Wasn't always so.
"Certainly one of the chief guarantees of freedom under any government, no matter how popular and respected, is the right of citizens to keep and bear arms.... The right of citizens to bear arms is just one guarantee against arbitrary government, one more safeguard against the tyranny which now appears remote in America but which historically has proven to be always possible."
