Illinois Sucks Posted July 3, 2017 at 01:44 PM Share Posted July 3, 2017 at 01:44 PM We are headed to Wisconsin for a couple days. Anything in particular to be aware of while conceal carrying there? Any duty to inform if pulled over? Where do you find rules for carrying in states that allow CC with an Illinois CCL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldMarineVet Posted July 3, 2017 at 02:06 PM Share Posted July 3, 2017 at 02:06 PM If you carry a knife, it looks like you can now carry any knife you want. Last time I looked, you needed to have a CCL, but now it looks like the need for the CCL was eliminated in Feb, 2016. https://staging.akti.org/state-knife-laws/wisconsin/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyP Posted July 3, 2017 at 03:04 PM Share Posted July 3, 2017 at 03:04 PM The Brat Stop is a tourist trap serving mediocre brats. A little further north is the newly rebuilt Mars Cheese Castle- a veritable Mariano's style store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

junglebob Posted July 3, 2017 at 05:43 PM Share Posted July 3, 2017 at 05:43 PM We are headed to Wisconsin for a couple days. Anything in particular to be aware of while conceal carrying there? Any duty to inform if pulled over? Where do you find rules for carrying in states that allow CC with an Illinois CCL? Where in Wisconsin are you going to? Something to be aware of while carrying is that I understand Wisconsin is a "duty to retreat" state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kipp Jones Posted July 3, 2017 at 08:14 PM Share Posted July 3, 2017 at 08:14 PM Dells recommendations are Port Vista and The Keg. Great food and drinks/venue. Local non-touristy places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have been the Brat State Champs many years over the past 40 years or so. Want a real treat? Try their Jalapeno brats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piasa Posted July 7, 2017 at 05:29 PM Share Posted July 7, 2017 at 05:29 PM So I read about the WI prohibited carry locations as: " Any individual who knowingly possesses a firearm at a place that the individual knows, or has reasonable cause to believe, is within 1,000 feet of the grounds of a school is subject to a Class B forfeiture."and"“School” is defined as “a public school, parochial or private school, or tribal school, as defined in s.115.001(15m), which provides an educational program for one or more grades between grades 1 and 12 andwhich is commonly known as an elementary school, middle school, junior high school, senior high school, or high school.” Based on these statutes, it would appear as though I need a map, or need to create a map, which shows all locations which qualify as the definition of "school", shows the property boundaries of each, shows the area extending 1,000 feet from the property boundaries. Creating such a map would require significant research. Without it, one would undoubtedly pass through many 1000-foot exclusion zones during any drive of more than a mile or so in any urban area. One could envision being pulled over on an interstate, advising the LEO of CC, and being charged as per the statute because the area of the interstate highway where one was parked was within an exclusion zone. Does anyone know if such a map exists? How do WI CC travelers deal with this law? Does claiming ignorance of the existence of the school exclusion zone work?

Keep reading the rest of 948.605 ...(b ) Paragraph (a) does not apply to the possession of a firearm by any of the following:...1r. Except if the person is in or on the grounds of a school, a licensee, as defined in s. 175.60 (1) (d), or an out-of-state licensee, as defined in s. 175.60 (1) (g). Important part highlighted in red.

piasa Posted July 8, 2017 at 01:43 AM Share Posted July 8, 2017 at 01:43 AM Interesting. So you would read that such that an Illinois CCW could legally carry concealed onto WI school grounds and into WI school buildings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The language is convoluted. But it says :1. If you carry w/in 1k feet of schools, you commit a felony. a. unless you have a license I. except that even w/ a license, you can't carry on the school grounds. BTW, I am not an attorney and this isn't legal advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kemikos Posted July 9, 2017 at 04:21 AM Share Posted July 9, 2017 at 04:21 AM Anyway, back to the important stuff: Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to find and investigate The Safe House: http://www.safe-house.com (It's an amazing spy-themed restaurant and bar with great food and cocktails, and enough stuff to see that it's almost like eating in a spy museum. As you'd imagine, it's a secretive place: there is no sign anywhere outside that says "The Safe House". Finding your way inside is the first part of the mission...)
