On Monday, the Michigan Capitol Commission has on their agenda a discussion on firearms in the Capitol building and on Capitol Square. This i sin response to recent protests at our Capitol

Link to the agenda here .

I have participated in rallies at the Michigan Capitol for years in which firearms have been openly carried. The most that has ever been asked is that people be careful to not damage the walls or woodwork with the muzzles of their firearms.

A nicely worded note to the members and to your legislator (if a Michigan resident) may help in restraint. Thanks.

Those photos have been seen around the world.

I've been getting comments from Europe and Asia.
