Recently, the Michigan Legislature has decided to entertain the notion of House Bill 6544. Which would in part require ALL semi-automatic weapons purchased before the bill’s passing to be registered, and the ban on future sales of all “assault weapons” in Michigan. The bill defines an assault weapon as a semiautomatic rifle that has an ability to accept a detachable magazine and has one or more of the following characteristics: A pistol grip or thumbhole stock, any feature capable of functioning as a protruding grip that can be held by the non-trigger hand, a folding or telescoping stock, a shroud that is attached to, or partially or completely encircles, the barrel and that permits the shooter to hold the firearm with the non-trigger hand without being burned but excluding a slide that encloses the barrel. This is nothing more than a further infringement upon our rights and a further push to disarm the people. They say it’s to prevent further death, then where is your ban on cigarettes? What about all the poisons in our food?
The Michigan Constitution Clearly states, “Every person has the right to keep and bear arms for the protection of himself and the state.” The Constitution of The United States of America states in the Second Amendment, “A well-regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.” These leave no margin for “exceptions” such as pistol grips, shrouds, etc. These rights and amendments were afforded to us first by God and second by our founding fathers. The right to protect OUR life should that ever be necessary. The right to stand up to and remove a tyrannical government. The ability for We The People to stand for our lives, liberties, and freedoms. An armed populous is a dangerous populous, that is how they view it. Harking back to the days of the Revolutionary War, a citizen may have owned a ship fitted with FIFTEEN CANNONS, the same still applied. All in the name of protecting what was his and the country’s! This is our land we may protect it anyway that the People deem necessary.
The passing of House Bill 6544 would mean all but the end for all rights regarding firearms in the state of Michigan. Innocent law-abiding citizens would be at the mercy of their government with purchasing of hunting or self-defense weapons. The state of Michigan would have a catalog of every gun and gun owner in the state, which is the goal. This will make it that much easier for future confiscation. That is what this bill is designed to do, to ease people into handing over their defenses. The people of Michigan will be forced to register their firearms against their will every 5 years or face a felony charge and imprisonment of 5 years. They want this to take effect January 1, 2024, what will we do about it Michigan?
