Re: Told by constable that I could not carry in Township Building to vote
The case in 2006 was not a loss.
I agree that the word "regulate" is pretty vague and in it's entirety impossible to enforce, so then the courts fall back on intent. The clear intent of the statute is to prohibit each one of thousands of municipality from making up their own little rules and potentially trapping legal gun carriers into unknowingly doing something that is against the local laws, ordinances and rules. Footnote 9 totally goes against the intent and the wording of the statute.
Here's what I get from the footnote, The reality is,this was a judge who didn't like the way the ruling went, (he knew it had to go the way it did) so he added his worthless $.02 at the bottom to discourage future law suites.
You're the expert in these matters so I would encourage anyone who reads my drivel to do as Gunlawyer says, but if I'm confronted with having to defend, I'm going with what the statute says.Last edited by ray h; May 1st, 2016 at 12:40 PM.

Re: Told by constable that I could not carry in Township Building to vote
What you say is not drivel, it's the idealized version of what our system SHOULD be. Legislators argue over the words, the Governor signs bills as written, and then a few judges ignore the words and substitute what they think the law ought to have been. It's not right, but it is what it is.
