A day after killing ten bills, including a move that would let people carry guns just about anywhere, state Sen. Todd Gardenhire, R-Chattanooga, found himself in the crosshairs of the Tennessee Firearms Association. He shot back.
Gardenhire, a veteran Chattanooga lawmaker who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee, said the firearms group hadn't "darkened" his door for years yet continued to bash him.
The group also hammered nearly every other Republican in the state for not repealing Tennessee's law against carrying a weapon with "intent to go armed," a situation in which carrying the gun has no designated purpose such as hunting. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
