www.knoxnews.com/kns/state/article/0,1406,KNS_348_5491437,00.html TN moves to allow guns in public buildings By News Sentinel staff April 18, 2007 NASHVILLE — In a surprise move, a House panel voted today to repeal a state law that forbids the carrying of handguns on property and buildings owned by state, county and city governments — including parks and playgrounds. "I think the recent Virginia disaster — or catastrophe or nightmare or whatever you want to call it — has woken up a lot of people to the need for having guns available to law-abiding citizens," said Rep. Frank Niceley, R-Strawberry Plains. "I hope that is what this vote reflects."

WOW! That's awesome!!!
Has anyone seen the billboard along I-75 as you go into Florida??? It's sponsored by the the Brady bunch.....I can't remember exactly what it says, but it's warning tourists that you might get shot in Florida..... I just caught a glimpse of it as I went by (at 80+mph) LOL. I'm sure that TN will be getting some of those Brady billboards also!

I wish there were one of those on every road coming into morgan county, I bet our crime rate would drop to about 1/3 of what it is now.

If you replaced "Visitor" with "Criminal" then that might just be a good crime deterrent! ;D

Makes me wonder if Delaney had a hand in designing that Welcome billboard. Was out in the front yard yesterday popping dandelions , had a .357 on my hip, does make some people slow down to the posted speed limit and look. |
