A Michigan bill on the desk of Republican Gov. Rick Snyder has an apparent loophole preventing public schools from stopping licensed gun holders with advanced training from carrying weapons on school property.

The issue comes in the wake of a deadly school shooting in Connecticut that has politicians, community leaders and religious officials re-examining gun laws.
