Here is UW-Madison's response to the new concealed carry law in Wisconsin:
UW Madison Students, Faculty, & Staff,
When Wisconsin’s new concealed carry law goes into effect on November 1, 2011 all weapons will remain prohibited in UW Madison buildings. If you see a person who is not a police officer in uniform carrying a weapon in a UW Madison building, call 911. As allowed by law, persons with licenses will be allowed to have weapons in parking areas and on the grounds of the university. However, do not assume a person has a license. We recommend you think “safety first” and if you err, please err on the side of calling police. Our police officers are trained to react appropriately to those legally or illegally carrying weapons. As always, call UWPD if you see suspicious behavior or someone with a weapon on UW Madison property.
Thanks,
Chief of Police Sue Riseling
Associate Vice Chancellor
UW Madison
I wonder how the NRA will react to the new UW Policy? My guess is that they will consider it harassment. I also wonder whether the NRA has thought about what will happen the first time a concealed carry permit holder pulls a gun in self-defense and is shot by a police officer who assumes they are the doer?
