Attacking Constitutional Rights In Michigan….

New “gun safety” laws go into effect in Michigan on 2/13/24, laws that have alreadybeen declared unConstitutional and which have ZERO CHANCE of preventing criminals from obtaining or using guns illegally.  Rep. Brabec said “the firearm safety caucus she leads has also discussed Michigan's ‘stand your ground’ law that allows the use of deadly force any place someone has the legal right to be without imposing any ‘duty to retreat’ so long as the person using such force is not committing a crime at the time and believes the use of force will prevent imminent death, bodily harm or sexual assault.”

“‘That we still have that on the books, is problematic,’ said Brabec.”

They want to do away with this law THIS YEAR that recognizes the we have a God given right to DEFEND OURSELVES.  They don’t believe we have that right.  THEY PLACE THE LIVES OF CRIMINALS ABOVE THE LIVES OF THE INNOCENT.
A man much smarter than they wrote the followingin 1764:

“A principal source of errors and injustice are false ideas of utility. For example: that legislator has false ideas of utility who had rather command the sentiments of mankind than excite them, and dares say to reason, `Be thou a slave'; who would sacrifice a thousand real advantages to the fear of an imaginary or trifling inconvenience; who would deprive men of the use of fire for fear of their being burnt, and of water for fear of their being drowned; and who knows of no means of preventing evil but by destroying it. The laws of this nature are those which forbid to wear arms, disarming those only who are not disposed to commit the crime which the laws mean to prevent. Can it be supposed, that those who have the courage to violate the most sacred laws of humanity, and the most important of the code, will respect the less considerable and arbitrary injunctions, the violation of which is so easy, and of so little comparative importance? Does not the execution of this law deprive the subject of that personal liberty, so dear to mankind and to the wise legislator? and does it not subject the innocent to all the disagreeable circumstances that should only fall on the guilty? It certainly makes the situation of the assaulted worse, and of the assailants better, and rather encourages than prevents murder, as it requires less courage to attack unarmed than armed persons,” Excerpt from “Of Crimes And Punishment, Of False ideas of Utility, Cesare Bonesana, Marchese Beccaria, 1764.

He had this figured out in the 1700s.
