one that will allow ALL law abiding citizens to carry a weapon anywhere, anytime, any way they choose.

it's up to the citizen to decide whether or not he or she wishes to carry concealed, not the state.

it's not the state's job to get involved with personal protection decisions.

they don't have enough time to balance the budget, but they have time to make up silly laws about where law abiding citizens may or may not carry guns. why aren't they working on making the streets safer for us? they don't want to. they'd rather charge us to buy our rights back.

i don't know about you, but the current laws in this state don't give me the feeling that freedom has been preserved for me, or my posterity.

2) This Bill [by Anonymous Citizen on October 21, 2007]

Is more elitst hogwash that would endow certain individuals who have government connections (i.e., government agents) special privileges not enjoyed by the run of Michigan citizens. It shoud be opposed for that reason, as a matter of principle.

The bill to support is HB 4759, which eliminates the so-called pistol-free zones altogether, without favoritism to benefit only government agents or other elites.

The bills have the same language. Dont ask me why but they are the same.

To some of the other people who wrote might i suggest these things take small incremental steps. No way will it all get changed immediately. So lets take the little steps and pretty soon the law will be the way we need it.
