yep. OC is the cheapest and most effective way to support A2. Just get over yourself, and do it.

The only thing wrong in the article, is that it said we were making the most out of our open carry law. Not really. There is no open carry law here in Michigan, it has never been illegal, therefore, it is legal to do so.

The open carry law Fulton speaks of can have several different meanings. He may be referring to Michigan's Preemption Law (123.1102) or when and where a person may legally do so.

For example, there are laws that pertain to when a person may legally OC in Michigan, such as, the person must be 18 years of age or older and the pistol must be registered to him or her.

There are laws pertaining to open carry that prohibit said person from OC in places/premises where CPL holders are not prohibited.
