Heads up Wisconsin Freepers.

Oops. I left off page two of the article.

“Unfortunately, a lot of well-intentioned legislators signed on to the 56-page bill without knowing this little treat was hidden inside,” said Zien. “If you are going to take away my right to shoot my deer rifle, at least admit it up front.”

Following are key provisions of the ban language as proposed by Baumgart/Doyle in Senate Bill 363 [Comments in brackets added]:

947.07 (1) (c) "Destructive device" means an overpressure device, or a device that contains an explosive or an incendiary and is designed or configured to cause substantial bodily harm, death, or property damage, including any of the following devices:

947.07 (1) (d) "Detonator" means a device containing an exploding charge used to initiate detonation in an explosive or a destructive device, or any device capable of initiating or setting off an explosive charge including, but not limited to, an impact device, a timing mechanism, a primer, primer or detonating cord, a detonating cap, detonating waves, electric blasting caps, blasting caps for use with safety fuses, a shock tube initiator, or detonating cord delay connectors. [A “primer” is the ignition device that sets off every bullet or shotgun shell.]

947.07 (1) (f) "Explosive" means any chemical compound, other substance, or mechanical system that is intended to produce an explosion capable of causing substantial bodily harm, death, or property damage, including such a compound, substance, or system that contains oxidizing and combustible units in proportions or quantities that ignition, fire, friction, concussion, percussion, or detonation may produce an explosion; including, but not limited to, items on the list of explosive materials published pursuant to 18 USC 841 (d) and 27 CFR 55.23.

947.07 (2) (a) Whoever manufactures, buys, sells, offers to sell, transfers, distributes or possesses an explosive or a destructive device is guilty of a class C felony. [Class C Felony = Up to 15 year sentence.]

947.07 (3) (a) Whoever uses an explosive or a destructive device is guilty of a Class B felony. [Class B Felony = Up to 60 year sentence]

947.07 (7) (c) Ammunition for firearms or components for ammunition for firearms that are designed to shoot no more than one shot without manual reloading. [This is the only firearms related exception to the above restrictions. Attorneys agree, the exception would not apply to any gun that can be loaded with more than one bullet or shell.]

947.07 (8) Evidence. A photograph, electronic image, videotape, or other identifying evidence of an explosive, destructive device, detonator, or weapon of mass destruction that is properly authenticated as provided under ch. 909 is admissible as evidence in lieu of the actual explosive, destructive device, detonator, or weapon of mass destruction in any action or proceeding concerning an explosive, destructive device, detonator, or weapon of mass destruction.

If this is enacted, what will Wisconsin do with all the geese? They have too many as it is.

I am in California. When this stuff hits here, there will be a revolution.

[supercat]

I may have to move from Illinois in a few years when the leftists take over. Something tells me my next stop won't be Wisconsin...

[Buckeroo]

OOPPSS! This stuff has already hit here in California. Looks like there is a revolution in process.

[Godebert]

Not suprised at all. Wisconsin is a blue (electoral) state....just like California and New York. Eventually they will ban all types of firearms in the blue states. That will be the time for the South (red states) to rise again!

[RogueIsland]

Baumgart and Doyle, American traitors.

[The Mayor]

Lock and load!

[pa_dweller]

“If Baumgart and Doyle get their way, every hunter in Wisconsin would be an instant criminal, facing prison and a lifetime loss of voting rights,” said state Senator Dave Zien (R-Wheaton).

Wrong, Mr. Zien!!! Any legislator who signed his name to this piece of trash would be an instant criminal by virtue of breaking his sworn oath to uphold and defend the Constitution.

[Twodees]

Does Wisconsin have any history of politicians being hanged by irate citizens? If not, something unprecedented may be about to happen there.

[RKBA_Champ]

... I'm sure hoping you folks wake upi and get rid of these politicians. NOW!

[StAthanasiustheGreat]

Oh my G-d. This is disgusting. I always knew Doyle was a maniac, but this is bad. He has just locked up the Democratic Nomination for governor with this, and I hope sealed his own defeat. The scary thing is though, that crap like this will be praised by liberals and gun-grabbers.

[Mulder]

This proposed legislation (with the gun ban) is an act of treason against the American people.

[Centurion2000]

And in the recipe for revolution another spice is added.

[Eagle Eye]

Is this any hint of a police state? If not, why not?

[patent]

This has next to no chance of passing. Of course, if it does, living in nearby MN, I should be able to augment my "arsenal" quite cheaply. At least for the next couple weeks until they pass something like that here.

I noticed that the FreeRepublic censors removed my fictional story about Baumgart and Doyle. I concede it was a little strong.

Nonetheless, it is hard to imagine that elected officials in the United States of America, who obviously know the intent of our Founding Fathers, would advocate banning guns.

The folks in Winsconson should be up in arms over this proposal. It is a slap at the citizens in Winsconson and the United States Bill of Rights.

Something is seriously amiss in Winsconson.
