After the insurrection, do you still want to argue that protesters should be allowed to open carry guns to the Capitol?
Well Michigan disagrees with you. During the lockdowns Republicans in MI stormed the Capitol with open carry assault rifles. At the time it was perfectly legal to do it. But then we saw what happened at the Trump insurrection. And Majorie Taylor Green even said if she was in charge, they would have been better armed.
Knowing all this, I agree with my state to not allow open carry anymore inside the Capitol.
Michigan Capitol Commission bans open carry of guns inside state Capitol
Critics say the ban does not go far enough and the commission should ban all firearms inside the Capitol, whether carried openly or concealed.www.freep.com
LANSING – The Michigan Capitol Commission, in a sudden reversal, voted unanimously Monday to ban the open carry of guns inside the Michigan Capitol, effective immediately.
Critics say the ban does not go far enough and the commission should ban all firearms inside the Capitol, whether they are carried openly or concealed, by anyone who is not law enforcement.
The commission had resisted such a move for years and sometimes claimed it did not have the authority to order a gun ban, despite building pressure in recent months amid angry protests, often involving armed men, inside and outside the Capitol.
That all appeared to change on Jan. 6, when a pro-Trump mob overran barricades and forced its way into the U.S. Capitol, causing significant damage and killing a Capitol police officer. One rioter was shot to death by police.
Even Republicans agree
Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey, R-Clarklake, recently came out in favor of a ban on open carry of weapons.
Why? Because Republicans might have something big planned. I hope our officers are better prepared this time
The FBI has issued a bulletin saying armed protests are being planned at all 50 state capitols from Jan. 16 through at least Jan. 20 and at the U.S. Capitol from Jan. 17 through at least Jan. 20
Dipshit....they didn't have any guns..........they chose not to bring guns.......you idiot.
