I was just rereading this update it states
"A private property owner has the right to prohibit individuals from carrying a visible or concealed pistol on his or her property. If a person remains on the property after being told to leave by the owner, the person may be charged with trespassing (MCL 750.552)."
It says that the property owner has the right to prohibit people from carrying, it does not say anything about managers, reps, or employees having the right to prohibit people from carrying a firarm. Any thoughts?
After further review they only copied and pasted some of the law and not all of it.
750.552 Trespass upon lands or premises of another; violation; penalty.
Sec. 552.
(1) A person shall not do any of the following:
(a) Enter the lands or premises of another without lawful authority after having been forbidden so to do by the owner or occupant or the agent of the owner or occupant.
(b) Remain without lawful authority on the land or premises of another after being notified to depart by the owner or occupant or the agent of the owner or occupant.
(c) Enter or remain without lawful authority on fenced or posted farm property of another person without the consent of the owner or his or her lessee or agent. A request to leave the premises is not a necessary element for a violation of this subdivision. This subdivision does not apply to a person who is in the process of attempting, by the most direct route, to contact the owner or his or her lessee or agent to request consent.
(2) A person who violates subsection (1) is guilty of a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment in the county jail for not more than 30 days or by a fine of not more than $250.00, or both.

But on that note who would qualify as occupant or agent of the owner or occupant? Would that be blanketed to include anyone working at said location or just who the owner allows to have that authority be it the guy who had a bad day making min wage or a manager?
