concealed carry

[N. A. Corbier]

Its "agent of the goverment." A Company Police Officer in NC can't carry, nor can someone like Histfan71 (Government contractor, no matter what his badge says) but a state university or state junior college officer can.

[Jackhole]

An out of state LEO who meets the requirements of HR218 in their own state can carry anywhere in the United States except under special circumstances where state law says they can't.

"We disagree" isn't a special circumstance.

Banned for making personal attacks. Permabanned.

I have heard disturbing things from guys who know guys on Kwaj about that guy. Disturbing things. But, its all second hand, so I take it with a grain of salt.

I'm sure I've heard the same things.

???

What are we disagreeing about?

EDIT: Oh, I see what you mean, Wisconsin can't just disagree with the Feds.

You're right, BUT they have ways of doing things, allowed in HR218. If they wanted to they could make a law saying out of state LEOs can't carry in wisconsin, see below:

(from HR218)

`Sec. 926B. Carrying of concealed firearms by qualified law enforcement officers

`(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of the law of any State or any political subdivision thereof, an individual who is a qualified law enforcement officer and who is carrying the identification required by subsection (d) may carry a concealed firearm that has been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce, subject to subsection (b).

`(b) This section shall not be construed to supersede or limit the laws of any State that--

`(1) permit private persons or entities to prohibit or restrict the possession of concealed firearms on their property; or

`(2) prohibit or restrict the possession of firearms on any State or local government property, installation, building, base, or park.

The underlined parts are those that allow the states to restrict where LEOs covered by HR218 can carry. New Jersey says you can't carry in their casinos, so you can't. The Federal Government says you can't carry on a military base, so you can't. Ect Ect.

But it also means that HR218 covered LEOs can carry in places where "civilians" with CCWs can't. Thats how it was explained to me anyways.

It's moot for active and retired "out of state" LEOs, you just have to meet the requirements in your state, Wisconsin can't say anything to you about that.

Wisconsin's problem is Sec. 3 of HR218. The part about Retired LEOs. In state retired LEOs are facing an up hill battle getting the right to carry off duty in Wisconsin it seems.

The problem with Wisconsin (as I understand it) has nothing to do with OUT OF STATe LEOs. Nothing Wisconsin can do can prevent out of state active and retired LEOs cover under the act from carrying concealed. The probelm exists for IN STATE retired LEOs. Supposedly, Hr216 conflicts with some existing laws and such in wisconsin.

Exactly my point!!!

If WI allowed retired PO's to carry conceled, then they would have to allow PI's & security personal to carry concealed. The state is very against any CCW laws.

I know quite a few guys are are royally ticked off about that too. Friends of mine who work for Private Institutions (Baylor Health Care System Police, Methodist Hospital of Dallas Police, and Southern Methodist University PD specifically).

Same academy requirement, same state requirements to become peace officers, same authority, but if they want to carry legally in another state they have to get a CCW. "Civillians" who take a one day CCW class can carry out of state, but they can't.

I know that would tick me off. The provision about officer's "working for the gvernment" was pushed but FoP and other unions I heard, for what reasons I'm not sure..

[Jackhole]

Exactly my point!!!

You have funny ways of proving your points then. I told you a few times that I was not a retired in-state LEO, yet you continued to insist that I wouldn't be allowed to carry there.

It's a moot point anyway. I can't think of any reason I would need to travel to WI with my weapon, other than to kill myself with it because I was in WI.

Your answer - Yes, you can.

No you cant! I didn't say if your a 'current' LEO you couldn't, only if your a retired LEO.

Looking foreward to your visit to WI.

Because the Fraternal Order of Police lobbies for the betterment of government-derived law enforcement officers, not specials or auxiliaries or other private law enforcement. Without speaking for the Grand Lodge, they consider them security personnel taking jobs away from government sanctioned police forces.

In other words, they wanted to make sure that only government-appointed LEOs got to carry. Those who are not government-appointed cannot join the FOP, and are not "brothers in blue" to the FOP. They're the competition.
