"I think the ramifications for gun stores are going to be huge," says Nik Clark, who heads the pro-gun group Wisconsin Carry. He expects the owners of Badger Guns to appeal the ruling. Yet he says even if the owners ultimately prevail, this week’s ruling will take a toll on gun stores.
"Between now and the time that the appeal is heard and decided -- which may be years -- businesses, if they're worried about their legal exposure, are going to need to adjust their practices immediately," Clark says.
Clark says some stores might now turn away customers who can legally buy guns. |

What other retail business needs to be able to read peoples minds?
This sets a dangerous precedent in that it requires gun dealers to discern a buyer's intent when they sell him a gun. That is clearly not possible.
The real problem here is that you have a democratic city inhabited with liberals and low information types that have an agenda to drive gun dealers out of their city as has happened in San Francisco.
I don't believe this law suit would have gained any traction here in Texas, but it was predictable that it would occur in one of the blue states. |

TO REMEMBER |
| To prohibit a citizen from wearing or carrying a war arm . . . is an unwarranted restriction upon the constitutional right to keep and bear arms. If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of constitutional privilege. [Wilson v. State, 33 Ark. 557, at 560, 34 Am. Rep. 52, at 54 (1878)] |
