Wisconsin becomes the 49th state to allow its citizens to carry a hidden weapon with them while they walk around in public tomorrow. I offer the following five items for consideration on the eve of tomorrow's shoot-em up:

1. Is your concealed weapon a secret? What, are you chicken?
2. Do you really have to be asked not to bring it to church?
3. Suggestion: Before engaging in a shoot out, please make sure you're both packing. It's just more fair that way.
4. If you think you are defenseless without your weapon, you're probably right.
5. Your right to bear arms does not extend into my house. Please leave your weapons with a responsible person while visiting. Like one of those neighbor kids who throw baseballs at each other. I bet they're the responsible type. Or, put your gun with the baby. It'll be safe there, since babies don't know how to shoot.
