That's because laws are written by lawyers, so that only lawyers can figure them out.

We need to kick all the lawyers out of Congress and the state legislatures and have the laws re-done by laymen so that everyone can understand them. Yeah, like that will ever happen. :banghead:
I wrote the MI House Of Representatives Members last year about some of the wording of a bill. They took that suggestion to heart, even if the bills have not yet been passed.

If you have a CPL you can OC there, but can not conceal carry any place other than a parking lot.

If you have a CPL you can OC in or on any public K-12 school.

I spoke face to face with my state representative Eileen Kowall about this, and she said specifically that the problem is being worked on. They are trying to make them write laws so that we the people can understand them.

She is also actively pro 2A.
