| Urgent! Wisconsin Dems Ambush Gun Owners with Pre-July 4th Holiday Gun Control
Dear Gun Owners and public,
We’ve just mailed our Spring-Summer 2025 newsletter to our members, which highlights some of the gun rights initiatives WGO is working on—including our strong push for Constitutional Carry in Wisconsin—but there have been some late-breaking developments that didn’t make the newsletter.
State Democrats have just snuck in a massive gun control package, which they hope will fly under our radar and get passed in the dead of night when no one is paying attention.
But WGO is always paying attention. And that’s why we’re scrambling our assets and sounding the alarm as your Early Warning System.
I haven’t heard a peep about any of this from the institutional gun lobby or Republican lawmakers in Madison.
Have you?
The gun control package includes:
• SB329—“Extreme risk protection orders”—aka red-flag gun confiscation
• SB332—Prohibiting undetectable firearms (whatever)
• SB336—Prohibiting private gun sales (sell your buddy a gun, go to prison)
• SB330—Resurrecting the failed joke of handgun waiting periods in Wisconsin
Only 21 states have enacted some form of extreme risk protection law (aka “confiscate your guns without due process, ask questions later”), but now, with State Republicans and the institutional gun lobby asleep at the wheel, the threat of red-flag gun confiscations has taken the next terrifying step toward becoming a reality.
This is scary stuff.
So far, WGO has stopped Wisconsin legislators from enacting such a law in this state, but the screams from the control freaks in Madison only grow louder.
In these so-called “red-flag laws,” there is no penalty for someone who calls in a bogus red flag on you to have your guns confiscated.
In fact, in some locales, simply purchasing a gun or ammunition marks you as a “dangerous person,” which can trigger a massive law enforcement response descending on your home, complete with trigger-happy SWAT teams and no-knock raids.
As a reminder, here’s how red-flag risk orders work: someone reports or “red flags” you to the government.
A secret court (one that you are not allowed to attend or even have representation at) decides if you’re a “threat” and issues a gun confiscation order.
The police come and knock on your door immediately.
They demand your guns.
They order you from your home, hands up or behind your back.
They scream at you not to make any sudden movements.
You’ll be told: COMPLY! … OR ELSE!
Just like that, your gun rights are gone … no due process, presumption of innocence, or legal defense.
All it takes is for a nosy neighbor or disgruntled ex-spouse to report you.
Doctors will now be asking you if you own guns and could report you.
Even if someone downright lies about you, you have no due process to refute the allegations … until after they take your guns.
The legal costs of hiring an attorney and having your firearms returned, as well as clearing your name, could easily reach hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The situation is extremely dangerous.
You can thank BOTH PARTIES for creating this draconian nightmare.
That’s why I need to know if you’ll stand with me and WGO to OPPOSE red-flag gun laws in Wisconsin.
The question is, what are we going to do about this threat?
If you saw my recent EMERGENCY letter, you know WGO is WAY BEHIND its budget and cannot afford to fight on another front.
However, some battles are so serious that we consider them “survival battles.”
That’s a fight that, if we lose, will mean the end of gun rights and the government’s total control of YOU.
This is one such fight. Unfortunately, we cannot sit it out.
So, what can you do right now, today?
1. CLICK HERE to sign the online petition to Wisconsin’s legislators opposing red-flag gun confiscations in Wisconsin.
Once red-flag gun confiscation becomes law in Wisconsin, it will be virtually impossible to repeal it.
We’ve already seen how federal “Fusion Centers” were established after 9/11 to consolidate resources and build a 1984-style surveillance grid to watch the millions of citizens placed on the feds’ unconstitutional watchlist.
Just wait ‘til that kind of federal resource centralization is amassed to use against gun owners like you and me.
The anti-gunners won’t have to repeal the Second Amendment; they’ll disarm gun owners one by one using the power of the new National Gun Confiscation Resource Center.
None of us will be safe:
– Veterans suffering from PTSD.
– Retired police officers dealing with anxiety.
– Activists espousing unpopular (pro-gun) viewpoints.
– Anyone going through a divorce from a vindictive ex.
– People with hateful neighbors who despise hunters.
– Anyone who votes.
– Anyone who belongs to a gun club.
– Anyone who has a bumper sticker on their vehicle.
– Anyone who has ever attended a political conference or rally.
The list goes on and on.
Are YOU on this list?
ACTION:
1. SIGN THE ONLINE PETITION OPPOSING so-called “extreme risk restraining orders” or red-flag gun confiscations in Wisconsin. Make no mistake, it will trash due process, and we cannot allow it to become law.
Thank you,
Corey Graff
Executive Director
P.S.- State Republicans and the institutional gun lobby appear to be asleep at the wheel as State Democrats sneak a massive gun control package into the legislative calendar. That package includes red-flag gun confiscations that will be used to target and disarm Badger State gun owners without due process.
