Anti-gun politicians just can’t seem to follow the rules.

They already ignore the Constitution which clearly lays out a right to bear arms.

And now one politician has chosen to ignore the law altogether in his attempt to grab guns.

Ever since Democrats took over the state of Michigan in the November 2022 elections, they have been extremely aggressive in passing their agenda.

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has ordered the legislature to pass a number of her agenda items, including gun control.

That was the focus of a set of hearings earlier this year, which ostensibly were in response to a shooting that occurred at Michigan State University.

Of course, like always, these politicians were simply waiting for a catastrophic event to take place in order to push the agenda that they always wanted.

But in the process of holding these hearings, they ignored the law, perhaps at the direction of Gov. Whitmer.

They were supposed to allow speakers to testify, even if they disagreed with the members of the committee.

But instead, they shut pro-gun speakers down and censored their points of view in a raw political power grab.

Great Lakes Gun Rights, the Michigan arm of the National Association for Gun Rights, exposed this in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Here is what they said: “The Michigan Court of Claims has held that the Michigan House of Representatives violated the State’s Open Meetings Act when it arbitrarily limited, or in most cases completely prevented, pro-gun rights speakers from testifying during committee hearings.

“Earlier this year, the Democrat-led Michigan Legislature held hearings on (and eventually passed) numerous anti-gun bills under the guise of a response to the shooting at Michigan State University. As with most anti-gun bills, they did nothing to address the issues they were allegedly being pushed to address. When groups like Michigan Open Carry and Great Lakes Gun Rights attempted to point out these clear problems publicly, they were silenced by the anti-gun committee Chairs.

“The Legislature’s fast and ILLEGAL actions show that they know what we know: The truth does not support their agenda, which is why they had to prevent it from coming out.

“While the Court declined to issue an injunction to prevent further illegal acts under a belief the Legislature will comply in the future, MOC and GLGR will continue fighting to defend the rights of all law-abiding gun owners, including by making sure that legislators follow the law too. For if they can’t, why should they expect anyone else?”

It is outrageous for these politicians to violate the law in order to pass new laws taking away people’s constitutional rights.

They are acting with total impunity as a result of the complete control over the state that they obtained in the November elections.

And Gov. Whitmer set an example for them by acting like a dictator and flouting the rules during the COVID pandemic.

Now her minions in the legislature are doing the same in the hopes of passing gun control.
