Village leaders seem poised to adopt a rule allowing the open carry of firearms in most of the community, though they may continue to ban guns in community parks.

The Public Works and Protection Committee on Tuesday recommended the village reverse its ordinance forbidding the open carry of firearms to comply with state law. De Pere also changed its code after Wisconsin Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen issued a statement saying state statutes did not indicate that openly carrying a firearm is illegal and that the state constitution gives people the right to keep and bear arms.

Open carry is legal in Wisconsin and I plan to do just that the next time I'm visiting the state. I sincerely hope noone gets stupid and arrests me. I will see them in court, maybe more than once!
