The Michigan Capitol Commission voted Monday to form a special committee for studying its power to ban guns inside the Capitol building as lawyers offered differing legal opinions on the matter.
The move came after demonstrators openly carried firearms during an emotional April 30 protest at the Capitol and garnered national attention. The situation jettisoned the six-member panel in charge of the Capitol grounds into the spotlight.
A few hours before the Capitol Commission's 11 a.m. meeting, Attorney General Dana Nessel issued a formal legal opinion, stating that the Capitol Commission had the authority to unilaterally ban guns. But the commission's legal consultant, Amy Shaw, disagreed during the meeting.

TO REMEMBER |
| A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C) |
