Here is the letter I plan to send to CBL Properties owners of various malls in Michigan.
To whom it may concern,
On a recent visit to your property in Muskegon, MI, The Lakes Mall, I took a minute to read your Code of Conduct. Item number 20 and the civil rights disclaimer at the bottom is very contradicting. Item 20states that the only people allowed to carry weapons on your properties our officers of the law, while on duty. Here in Michigan off duty officers, retired officers, and civilians with a CPL (concealed pistol license) can carry a concealed pistol. Further more there has not been an enforceable law against the open carry of a fire arm since 1990 when the state law makers passed a bill preempting all local ordinances against it. Therefore item 20 does in fact deny us our civil right to bear arms given to us by the 2nd amendment to our Constitution. I ask that you revise this area of your code of conduct in a reasonable amount of time or have your Michigan properties added to a on-line list of places unfriendly to those of us who legally carry a fire arm for the protection of our self, our families, and those around us. Those of us who monitor this list will abide by your code of conduct and take our money elsewhere until it is changed, however it is statistically proven that the criminals of our society will not.
The stores that rent space in your Michigan properties will also be informed that your code of conduct, as it is posted, jeopardizes their safety and their bottom line. Please reply by e-mail within 2 weeks if you wish to remain off this by allowing your patrons all their civil rights.
Thank you,
Please give your thoughts on weather this is a good way to promote OC.
Here is the list of all properties owned by CBL:
