A controversial gun bill passed by state lawmakers is getting calls for a veto. One of Tennessee's big city mayors says local governments could be forced to spend millions of dollars to comply with the measure, or face lawsuits from gun rights groups like the NRA. The controversial bill grew out of the guns and parks measure passed a few years ago by lawmakers that left open a lot of costly questions for local governments.

"“I can also speak as a parent of a child who rides an MTA bus. The idea of folks with guns riding with my son on public transportation terrifies me,” says Joslin Roth."
What an idiot. Does she actually believe that the miscreants and criminals don't carry guns where ever they please?
These laws only affect honest law abiding citizens that are not causing any problems. |

“Local law enforcement should have final say on where guns should be carried, and there should not be a financial penalty.”
No, the Constitution has the final say. If LE doesn't like it, well, that's tough.
“I can also speak as a parent of a child who rides an MTA bus. The idea of folks with guns riding with my son on public transportation terrifies me.”
Permit holders who don't drive can't be arbitrarily denied their right to carry arms while using public transportation. That is patently unconstitutional. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
