It happens at least once a year at the Michigan Capitol: Armed demonstrators openly carry firearms into the historic building and watch the Legislature from galleries overlooking the state House and Senate chambers.
There are no metal detectors, no weapon checks and no policy to prohibit loaded weapons.
But longtime observers say the scene that unfolded Thursday at the Michigan Capitol where riled protesters armed with rifles heckled lawmakers from the spectator gallery and shouted at police, garnering national attention was far different than annual Second Amendment rallies, where gun activists celebrate their rights. |

Were they carrying lawfully? Yes.
Was anybody shot or otherwise injured? No.
Was any crime committed? No.
So, what is the justification for changing the law? |
