Wisconsin Carry: 49 Down, One To Go

This Kristen Rand of the violence Policy Center is an absolute idiot AND a liar.

 

[GBuck]

Word of the day: Hoplophobia. The irrational fear of firearms.

 

[GBuck]

Kristen Rand of the Violence Policy Center ramped things ups a notch, claiming “Concealed carry permit holders don’t prevent mass shootings, they perpetrate them. They don’t support police, they shoot them.”

This woman is an ABSOLUTE lunatic. I've carried a gun my entire adult life, and while I have not prevented any mass shootings, I was prepared to. And while I do support the police, I certainly haven't shot any. Unless, you count that one time... but seriously, the gun jumped out of its holster and went nuts shooting up a crowd.

So you got one of those guns that actually works? Mine never do that, I'm thinking of taking them back.

Illinois may offer it if forced to, but I guarentee they will require stupid requirements or make it outlandishly expensive.....they are afterall, the USA's Nazi state....

 

[INMIline]

Maybe IL will but Chicago won't

Not under the current political machine. There's always hope though.

I wouldn't get all warm and runny inside yet... only 37 or so States are "shall issue". Still a lot of States like N.J., Hawaii, etc. where the average joe dosn't stand a chance in hell of legal carry.

 

[Bill of Rights]

Pretty close!

2011:
No-Issue:1
May-Issue:10*
Shall-Issue:38
Unrestricted:4(three have permits available)

(*Alabama is officially "May Issue", but for all intents and purposes is "Shall Issue")

(Edit: I've counted AK, WY, and AZ twice because they do have permits available)

cool map Bill. Has Indiana always been a shall issue state?

I think Kirk said once that we'd had our LTCH in some form since the Reconstruction, which would be about 1865 or so.

And thank you. It's a personal project of mine to keep that updated. I didn't create it, but the updates of the last five years or so are mine.

One interesting point I notice: No state that has moved from red to yellow, yellow to blue, or blue to green has ever gone back to a more restrictive status.

Blessings,
Bill
