Perfect handgun for CP

[ssgharkness020147]

The gov. veto'd it. But it was over ridden from there. It made it all the way to the Assembely for the final time, much to my shagrin (along with most Wi residents) Doyal (our gov) was able to muscle enough power up to get it shut down. Yet again.

I just dont get it. We elect these people. Most people in Wisconsin wanted and still want CCW. Wisconsin is a pretty blue collar state. People work for a living here, and people want the right to defend themselves and what is theres. Along with being working class we have alot of sportman, generally sportsman like the idea of CCW. I dont get how Doyal keeps shutting it down, the people elect him, his job as the Governer is to represent the intrests of the people that put him in office.

The need for CCW varies greatly depending on where you are in Wisconsin. People in Madison dont want it, Madison is so liberal I literally will not go there. Ever. For any reason. At the same time Madison is quickly going down the toilet. Madison PD now requires.... Get this, I promise you'll love it. Before an officer can engage a suspect with their side arm they must GET PERMISSION from the department. Needless the say the cops are getting their asses handed to them by the perps. Considering this is all happening in a place where gangs have been gainging strength, primarily MS13. Minority housing is also a gripe with the few conseratives in Madison. I have a friend that lives in an area that the homicide rate went up 900% in under five years after minority housing was introduced to his neighborhood.


Then there is up north. You dont need CCW up there. Crime rates are very low overall, northern WI is a great place.

Then there is Milwaukee. Crime in Milwaukee has been getting worse and worse. Milwaukee is an economically depressed city. I live about 45 minutes out of Milwaukee, people out here want CCW because of Milwaukee. They see whats going on there on the news, or have a bad experience in Milwaukee, and it serves as an eye opener to them.

I had more bad experiences in Milwaukee then I can recall. I cant tell you how many times I got detoured from my route home because the police had to close down a block because of a shooting, getting followed by people. Or having to ditch people following me, which forced me to break the speedlimit to speeds that were way to fast for the areas. Then there was the guy that stood in front of a greenlight of an off ramp I was on, forcing me to stop so he could explain to me that I should give him and his daughter (that he told me flat out he had just taken from his wifes house. sounded really fishy) a ride somewhere. I can say from first hand experience Milwaukee is crawling with cops. They are everywhere. Except when and when you need them.

If I still had to go there I would be packing heat (in my car) legal or not. Its gotten to the point there where if you are carrying a gun illegally in Milwaukee and are confronted by an assailant you can shoot the SOB and get in no trouble for it. They wont even ticket you for carrying the weapon.

Well. My rant is complete.
