Michigan's Concealed Pistol Law, which went into effect last year, says a person issued a concealed weapons permit can carry a handgun anywhere in the state except in churches, schools, hospitals, sports arenas, college dormitories and establishments serving alcohol.

Quick, someone propose that Ferdale sell alcohol in their city owned buildings. LOL!

I must confess that I thought the Ferndale ban was for anywhere in the city. Obviously, I was mistaken.

I hope you guys win this anyway(you should), here in Florida, the State CCW law specifically names government buildings as prohibited places. Our list is much more lengthy than the Michigan one. Actually, many people in Florida with the license are not too up on the prohibited places. I routinely have conversations with people who think banks are prohibited places, but they are not. However, pharmacies are.

I think the ban is worse than it looks if I remember right. It's for city property. Not just govt building. If the city owns it, it's probably banned. If I rent a business from the city....banned.

That's until the appeals court or Michigan Supremes(strict constitutionalist) slaps them down .
