The law that makes it illegal to conceal in those places is here
Michigan Legislature - Section 28.425o
as I posted in a previous post. The only way to legally carry in those places is openly.
ETA I believe there is another law in MI which prohibits carry in a courtroom either openly or concealed with some exemptions for law officers, judges etc. but I'm not in the mood to look for it at the moment.
Cedrartop, and others in northern IN, there will be a OC seminar at the Coloma Rod and Gun club in Coloma, MI on Tuesday, 14. It starts at 7:00pm till about 9:00pm. The guy who putting this is very knowagable knows what he is talking about. It's free and you are more than welcome to attend. I'll have 2 seats available in my car if needed. I will be leaving at 6:00pm sharp. Later, Bob
Hope to see you there. I'll be wearing a blue USA ballcap. Later, Bob
PS. maybe the cops in Benton Harbour need to attend so they will know what the law says..
