Campus carry bills on the move in Florida, Michigan

Republican lawmakers in Florida and Michigan are currently pushing legislation to make it legal for concealed pistol license (CPL) holders to carry guns on college and university campuses for self-defense.

In Michigan the effort for campus carry has coalesced behind SB 442, sponsored by senator Mike Green (R-Mayville). The bill has 13 co-sponsors—Republican all—and has already passed the Senate Judiciary Committee and is headed to the entire Senate for a vote.

The Detroit Free Press reports that open carry of firearms on university campuses is already legal in Michigan, and senator Green is using that fact to his benefit as he fights to legalize concealed campus carry. He said educators who oppose the campus carry bill “have to accept that under the U.S. Constitution, law-abiding citizens with CPLs now have the right to carry guns into schools, as long as they are not concealed.” In light of this, he said he is actually “attempting to do [bill opponents] a favor” by legalizing concealment to keep the guns out of sight.

So Mike Green openly admits SB 442 is all about getting rid of OC to make the hoplophobes happy?



Green said, “We as gun owners have every right in the world to carry in gun-free zones. Are we going to give that up? We’re trying to step back and say, ‘We’ll cover them up, if you guys are willing.'”

There is no reason whatsoever to OC at the current cPFZ's. All it does is scare the women and children. Besides, a legally holstered handgun not covered by a thin layer of clothing will go full-auto at the mere mention of its presence thereby destroying or killing anything or anyone within a 1000 yards. Not only that, even some highly-trained, Pro-2A, RSO's in the state claim OC, is one of the most dangerous things a person can do at a gun range which cause extensive damage to benches, backstops, baffles and such, to include all the massacres of RSO's and other folks regardless if the range is hot or cold.
