Excellent. Great letter, and thanks for the pledge to stand with us.All,
I just contacted County Exec. Walker, Alderperson Sanfellipo, Mayor Dan Devine (I am from Stallis), and every member of the West Allis Common Council with the below message. I will carry that day knowing that I risk prosecution and persecution. Maybe if we get the word out now, we won't have to worry about wearing bracelets and they'll just let us eat out chips and dogs and drink our sodas.
I did change the wording to the county guys to include that county ordinance prohibiting firearms in parks asking them to repeal it at once.
Dear __________:
I am writing to you today regarding the memo from the state attorney general’s office underlining the rights of the citizens of Wisconsin to carry a side arm so long as it is not concealed. Additionally, a large group of citizens of the metropolitan Milwaukee area are scheduling a picnic in Greenfield Park to occur on Memorial Day where we intend to exercise our rights under Article 1, Section 25 of the WI Constitution with the support of State Statue 66.0409 which preempts any local ordinances regulating firearms. Additionally, I ask that the City of West Allis adopt the following resolution:
WHEREAS, The Common Council of West Allis, Wisconsin affirms that the people have the constitutionally protected right to keep and bear arms for security, defense, hunting, recreation, or any other lawful purpose.
WHEREAS, the concealed carry of firearms is prohibited by Wisconsin Statute 941.23.
BE IT RESOLVED, that open carry is not an unlawful means to exercise these rights, and that no one may restrict a citizen's lawful exercise of these constitutionally protected rights.
If you choose not to act on the aforementioned resolution, the least that I ask is for an explaination of the reason for failure or refusal to act.
Very best regards,
Carl Schultz
West Allis, WI
We'll see what I get in response.
