“Lawmakers in Racine, Wisconsin voted yesterday to ban concealed weapons in city-owned buildings — except for themselves. The ordinance passed by a vote of 9 to 5 yesterday (April 3, 2013), but drew criticism from council members and area residents. ‘When you deprive us of a constitutional right but then turn around and give it to yourselves – that is incomprehensible,’ Racine resident Gary Dulek said. Several other people spoke out against that philosophy at the Common Council meeting Wednesday night. ‘This is about elected officials who believe they’re above the law,’ another attendee said.”
