Opportunity!
Live near Madison, WI? Want to help get Wisconsin back in line with the Constitution?
You will have a chance Wednesday, May 31st. Be at the Capitol in Madison, room 411 South at 9:30 AM. There's going to be a public hearing for AB 247 / SB 169, which would make Wisconsin the next Constitutional Carry state, eliminating the concealed carry license and it's associated bureaucracy.
Thanks, again, to Wisconsin Anti-Violence Effort for the heads-up!

Jugearscare blues
My wife called the "healthcare exchange" for some information, since she's without insurance since I retired and my "income" puts me above the limit for getting Jugearscare for her at a "subsidized" rate.
She made the mistake of giving them our phone number.
In the ensuing 24 hours, we have been called by no fewer than 20 different numbers around Wisconsin - each a robo-dialer that transfers to a semblance of a human working in a bullpen with other "operators". This person - it has to be a person, since no computer would ever be programmed with such ill skill at pronouncing English words and mangling our last name - reads from a script about how we had inquired about health insurance.
I hung up on the first few after telling them "not interested", swore horribly at the next few, got recorded messages from a few more while we were out, and told the last few that we were not interested and PLEASE remove us from their call list.
When Jugearscare is finally repealed, at least one segment of the economy will suffer - robocall bullpen phone operators. I'm sure that can all get employment in one of the branches of the Occupy movement, or as staffers for Demonrats.

Another screaming terror alert from Wisconsin WAVE!
Reckless bill would do away with permit and training requirements for concealed carry
Lawmakers in Wisconsin may hold a
public hearing very soon on the dangerous new bill that would allow just
about anyone--even people ages 18, 19, and 20--to carry a gun with:
- No Permit.
- No Background Check.
- No Training.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sorta like criminals in Chicago do every day right now?
My response:
I am writing to urge you to support AB 247 / SB 169, which would eliminate the requirement to obtain a permit to carry a concealed weapon in Wisconsin. This piece of legislation would return Wisconsin to the true spirit of the law under the Second Amendment of the Constitution.
Wisconsinites already suffer under several un-Constitutional laws, such as the "Handgun Hotline" which requires law-abiding American citizens to request permission from the government to purchase a personal protection device, as guaranteed under that Second Amendment.
Arguments have been made that this legislation will put thousands of guns on the street in the hands of criminals. Well, gun control laws are only obeyed by those individuals who would never abuse their 2nd Amendment right, so allowing good people to exercise their God-given right to self-defense cannot cause any such problems.
Please vote to pass this legislation. Proper "gun control" is education in public school for safety and marksmanship - not retaining laws abhorrent to our Constitution.
Sincerely,
Chuck Kuecker

Thanks again, Wisconsin WAVE, for providing me with a convenient means of notifying my representatives of my wishes!

More email to "representatives"...
Sent this recently to a local assemblyman:

Subject: [Possible SPAM] Take action to prevent gun violence

Subject: [Possible SPAM] Take action to prevent gun violence
Importance: Low
The proposal to require background checks on all gun sales (AB65 / SB34) is worthless and an infringement on the law-abiding people of Wisconsin.
Background checks do not affect criminals who steal guns or obtain them out of the trunk of a criminal gun seller.
We already have far too many "gun control" laws that do nothing to prevent criminals from causing violence. AB65 / SB34 is just more of the same, a "feel good" law that will do nothing to prevent violence.

Rep. Spreitzer
To Chuck Kuecker
Today at 1:54 PM
Dear Chuck,
Thank
you for writing about legislation to prevent gun violence. I am proud
to be a co-sponsor of AB 65/SB 34 which requires comprehensive
background checks for gun purchases. I have also co-sponsored AB 74
which would restore the 48-hour
waiting period for handgun purchases. We must do everything we can to
prevent gun violence and keep guns out of the hands of people who would
use them to do harm.
Sincerely,
Mark Spreitzer

My reply:
Obviously, you don't bother to read these emails.
Bad
law is bad law. No more "gun control" - let's have "criminal control" -
if they are not safe let out in society with a gun, keep 'em locked up.
Easy.
Chuck Kuecker
These politicians can't even make an effort to get their staffers to make up something approaching a logical response...
