Open Carry advocates arrested in Madison after refusing to prove they weren't felonsMADISON, Wis. — A group of armed men sat outside a Culver’s Restaurant near the East Towne Mall in Madison Sunday night eating burgers and drinking shakes.

The men said it was partly a chance to socialize but also a show of support for Shawn Winrich and a man from Racine who were arrested Saturday night at the same Culver’s while openly carrying guns.
