ATTENTION Participants... NO OPEN WEAPONS CARRY!

This event is being hosted by the "Downtown Muskegon" non-profit, which is primarily owned by the City of Muskegon and the Chamber of Commerce.

You OCing bikers might want to take a nice bike ride to Muskegon!

BTW, ZZZ is the one who told me about this...

I am reading that correctly that they are saying no open carry in MI on public property? right..  ;D What do some of these people think when they come up with this stuff?

They don't think... that is the problem!
Anything I post may be my opinion and not the law... you are responsible to do your own verification.

Blackstone (1753-1765) maintains that "the law holds that it is better that ten guilty persons escape than that one innocent suffer."

http://www.muskegonbiketime.com/   I went to this page, and saw a contact tab. Is there a member with knowledge of state law, that could write them and ask where their authority to ban open carry on public property derives? Conceal carry is acceptable to them during the event? How about open carry before/after the event? Are there any other Rights that they object to?

I filled this out yesterday.  I let them know that their advisory of no open weapon carry was unenforceable and that MOC was aware and weighing options. ;)
