Weekly/biweekly Michigan legislative activism thread December 7, 2012

Should Michigan's governor sign a bill on is desk that would allow concealed weapons in former no-gun zones, like schools?
The question is timely for two reasons:
* Under legislation that passed the House and Senate in Michigan this week, gun owners with concealed weapon permits could carry a gun into schools, daycares, hospitals or public arenas if they get extra training. The bill is awaiting Gov. Rick Snyder's signature, according to MLive.
* And on Friday, a gunman opened fire in a school in Newtown, CT, killing at least 27 at an elementary school, including 18 children.

Ping.
wide open carry.
Requires registration — no thanks.
One armed teacher or administrator would have saved dozens of lives today.
I tried but it wants me to join whatever it is.... I think such a measure is long overdue. The only time I don’t have a gun around is at work. The rest of the time, there is at least one handy. And I hate the thought that one day I would have to face off against an armed man with only the sharp end of a broken yardstick.
Adam Lanza walked into a CT school today with no permit whatsoever. How in the hell could we trust law-abiding citizens with guns in schools? /s
Thanks! Excellent idea!
Twitter is pretty handy for that sort of direct access sort of thing. Snyder appears to have someone on twitter pretty much all the time.
They should train all teachers who desire, to be reserve police officers—problem solved.
Fake it. Type in anything (like hsgbdbnh). Then gshhdgggh@yahoo.com. It doesn't matter. It'll take it.
It seems to work well for the Israelis.
Michigan is gun country and I can’t remember the last mass shooting like a school. There was a pretty serious shooting at a police station in Detroit a couple years ago.
You know, I’ve come on here for years, trolling you people by posting the dumbest sh1t I could come up with and laughing while you agreed with me and sent me PM’s out of solidarity. It was a guilty pleasure. I’m not proud of it, nor should I be. But, at long last, I will at least admit it.
But seriously, when you conclude that the answer to stopping school shootings is allowing more guns in school, you have reached a level of stupidity that is simply beyond the pale. 20 babies lie dead, their bodies so destroyed that no transport to a hospital was forthcoming. More guns, that is the answer. Congratulations, you have achieved the pinnacle of stupid; you are the ultimate “freeper”.
Yes, I have trolled here, because I knew that the more I fed the flames of your distorted thinking, the more I was doing to make sure those you support are unelectable. But this.....this is just dangerous.
You fools realize that the answer to decreasing teen sex isn’t providing more opportunities for sex. The answer to abortion isn’t increasing more opportunities for abortion. The answer to higher taxes isn’t more opportunities to tax. Why do you see the answer to gun violence as increasing the opportunities to acquire weapons?
Other than David Koresh, I can’t recall anyone using assault weapons to thwart the advances of an aggressive government. Yet, those same weapons, which have demonstrated zero utility to law abiding citizens, have been used to kill thousands of us, and today one killed babies. Those who continue to cheer on such weaponry have divorced themselves from the rational universe. Well done, freepers. At the root of the problem lies you.
I’ve always wondered what kind of things turn up in Michael Moore’s stool.
Now I know.
Got a live one here...come play before the mods find it.
Here it comes, folks. And our good friend SAR just showed us exactly what they’re going to say and how they’re going to say it.
So when you hear someone like SAR saying this stuff to use it to strip you of your God given and Constitutuonally protected 2nd Amendment rights remember this. SAR hand those like him or her have addresses. They go to work, they go shopping, they go to the bar, they go to the movies. It’s simply impossible for them to maintain a security perimeter of any kind indefinitely. Use that.
And remember this, anyone who wants the Government to disarm you wants to do something to you and they don’t want you to be able to resist.
Think about that for a minute.
Sleep well SAR. We all have to sleep sometime.
