Michigan bans open carry in the statehouse

[MacGyver]

In a move that I expect you'll see more of in coming days:

The Michigan Capitol Commission voted unanimously (every Republican and Democrat) to ban open carry in the statehouse.

Yes. It was interesting this was permitted in the first place. I'm not certain guns -n- politics is a good mix

I'm not sure politics and anything are a good mix.

Politicians do not want the rabble to have guns, because they intend to do things that would make the rabble want to shoot them.

Remember Lexington and Concord were over confiscation of arms and munitions that could be used in violent revolution, e.g. shooting the politicians and their minions.  These actions were undertaken by the duly constituted government of the time. 

No difference except the Minutemen had balls and there are none now.
