The Pleasant Prairie area of WI is very gun-friendly. Your state senator--Robert Wirch--voted for the CCW bill four times. The state representative for that area--John Steinbrink--voted for it as well.
That said, they're both Democrats, and this is going to be an especially partisan legislative session. If you should hear a peep out of either one that sounds squishy, please email me at

Hunter Rose, you're right: if our bill had passed, Madison couldn't deny CCW to anyone. Back in '94, Madison had a ban on handguns and ridiculous restrictions on transporting guns. The statewide pre-emption law put the brakes on the Madison ultra-liberals. Unfortunately, the powers that be in that city still make life miserable enough for gun stores that many have decided not to carry handguns.
Welcome to the Fourth Reich.
As for our special friend up north, I have all sorts of daydreams. Imagine grabbing him and putting him into a van, driving him to the North side of Milwaukee, pumping some crystal meth into his veins, stripping him naked, then dumping him stark naked out onto the streets with a Bowie knife in one hand and a sign around his neck that reads "I hate *********."
Ah, but one can only dream.
