Gun Bills Advance in TN Legislature
And the Memphis Commercial Appeal whines about the fact that its mis-use of the First Amendment is going to result in it being made illegal to "out" people with Handgun Carry Permits.
It concerns me that the vote on allowing permitted carry in parks has been delayed. http://www.commercialappeal.com/news...ack=1#comments Quote:

Publishing lists that contain all the names of permit holders for the sake of outing them should certainly be prohibited.
But prohibiting a newspaper from publishing whether or not someone accused of a serious crime involving a gun has a permit would seem to me to be unconstutional. If there are problems with permit holders we shouldn't try to hide them. We should simply point out that a few isolated incidents are no justification for prohibiting concealed carry. |

I would comment that here in PA we can carry in restaurants and bars without limitations. It has not been a problem. If a restaurant doesn't want guns they can simply post them out. I don't think laws the restrict private property rights are proper for the most part.

"If a restaurant doesn't want guns they can simply post them out."
The irony of that would be, How many patrons would come to tye door and think "There must be a problem with gun play in this place, otherwise they wouldn't have posted No Guns. Lets go someplace else..." |
