They interacted with a long term friend of mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He is an accomplished world traveler, due to his vocation as a missionary. He has traveled extensively in Europe, Asia, and Australia. He has often remarked about how little freedom most of the world has, compared to the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He is a brave man. I marvel at the dangers he considers routine.\u00a0 When in the United States, he openly carries a sidearm, most commonly a Glock .40 caliber semi-automatic pistol.\u00a0 He says liberty, unclaimed and unused, is easier to lose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is his report of open carry experiences in Wisconsin over the last six months:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>***<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I open carry in Wisconsin on a very regular basis, rarely do I have someone say anything to me about it, but every now and then&#8230;\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Last fall I was standing in line to pay for a coffee at our local Kwik Trip convenience store. I was openly carrying my Glock 22. I noticed a man look at me and then go about his business. As I went out to my truck he came outside.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>He said, &#8220;Sir, is it legal to carry a pistol like that in public?&#8221;\u00a0I replied yes it is, both our American constitution as well as our Wisconsin constitution protect the right to keep and carry arms.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>He then said, &#8220;Oh, you have a permit to carry.&#8221;\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I replied, &#8220;No permit is required to carry openly in the State of Wisconsin.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>This man was both shocked and excited. He thought he must have a permit to carry, and confided that he was wanting to do that, but was afraid the process would be long and expensive. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I informed him it is not; while waiting, he should study up on our gun laws and carry. He was very thankful.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Several weeks ago I walked into an Aldis grocery store. Several people took note I was openly carrying but did not say anything.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>As I walked out of the store, a car was approaching. I waited for it to pass and then proceeded to cross the parking lot.\u00a0The driver of the vehicle got out of his car and crossed the parking lot and said, &#8220;Sir, I want to thank you.&#8221;\u00a0I asked him &#8220;What for?&#8221;\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>He replied, &#8220;I want to thank you for carrying your sidearm in plain view. It does my heart good when I see people doing that. I feel safe and comforted in knowing if a wacko walks into an establishment with malicious intent, and sees someone who is armed, most likely he will change his mind, as he is looking to hurt, not be shot.\u00a0 Thank you for using your rights.&#8221;\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>As we talked he thanked me again for open carrying and said that I had given that push he needed to start carrying himself. I told him, more people need to be using their liberty. Liberty unclaimed, unused, is easier to lose.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Today, a buddy and I walked into Walmart.\u00a0I go into Walmart several times a week open carrying.\u00a0\u00a0I have never had anyone say anything to me, but today was different. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"681\" title=\"World Traveler Reports on Wisconsin Open Carry and Walmart Request\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/JMwLXHG.jpg\" alt=\"World Traveler Reports on Wisconsin Open Carry and Walmart Request\" class=\"wp-image-131099\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/JMwLXHG.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/JMwLXHG-400x272.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/JMwLXHG-150x102.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/JMwLXHG-768x523.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption>(<em>Photo: Gun Watch\/Dean Weingarten<\/em>)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I was carrying my Glock 22. Today was a two mag day.\u00a0My buddy was carrying his nickel-plated .45 Long Colt on a western-style gun belt. It is a very flashy pistol.\u00a0We did our shopping. Upon entering the checkout line, a look of panic appeared on the face of a cashier standing nearby.\u00a0 She called the manager.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The manager came over and said, &#8220;Men, I respect you, but we have a policy that you not carry openly in our store. So, I respectfully ask you to conceal your pistols.&#8221;\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>We pulled shirts out of pants and covered up the guns. I said, &#8220;Concealed.&#8221;\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I asked why there was no sign. She said there is a sign on the door.\u00a0I had never seen such a sign on the door. I asked her to point it out.\u00a0It was a 2-inch phrase in the corner of a general sign. I had never seen it before.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The lady was very respectful, as were we. She said she has a concealed carry permit and frequently carries.\u00a0She said, she understands our desire to carry. She thanked us for exercising that right, but apologized and referred to store policy. I told her I believe their sign does not meet the legal requirements. We talked some more and parted ways.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Open carrying a sidearm is a wonderful way to educate the public on liberty and our God-given rights. Brush up on talking points and Carry on.  <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>***<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not everyone is as brave as my friend. As the exercise of Second Amendment rights becomes more common, less courage is required.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A pleasant conversation with a friendly store manager is nothing compared to being locked in a Russian jail, or using a knife to fight off attacking dogs.\u00a0<br \/>The fight for liberty in America is still at the talking, writing, and voting stage.\u00a0 It is better and easier to win at those stages, than to go through the horrors of war our forefathers experienced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a92020 by Dean Weingarten: Permission to share is granted when this notice and link are included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gunwatch.blogspot.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"world-traveler-reports-on-wisconsin-open-carry-and-walmart-request\" title=\"World Traveler Reports on Wisconsin Open Carry and Walmart Request\">Gun Watch<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\">***<a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/\" campaign=\"BuySellGA_Register\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">Buy and Sell on GunsAmerica!<\/a>***<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Wisconsin Walmart manager recently followed store policy in Northern Wisconsin.
