The GOP leader in the Michigan Senate says he will try to overturn last week's court decision that potentially takes all guns out of schools. Arlan Meekhoff says a school without guns is defenseless.

“I think it's now a criminal empowerment zone. That's where criminals will go because they know there's no resistance and that's a danger to our kids,” he says.

While state law allows individuals with concealed pistol licenses to openly carry their firearms in schools, the Michigan Court of Appeals decision ruled that law does not preempt school districts from enacting their own firearms policies.
