Happy open carry day Tennessee

[Volgolfer1618]

That’s not true. This is the most open and worst gun law ever.
People are already walking around with fully semi automatic assault pistols intimidating everyone they see.
It’s as the founding fathers intended

Got any proof? How are the intimidating people?

Is blood flowing like rivers in the streets of Tennessee yet?

Rain is washing it away.

how many times do you gotta drive drunk without getting caught boefore it stops being a reason you should lose rights but instead gain a few?

 

[USAFgolferVol]

Going to be the wild west!

That people think it's a good thing is mind boggling

 

[Orangeslice13]

"Free state of Tennessee." I wouldn't necessarily characterize Tennessee as the model of a free state.

Have you been to new York lately?

 

[Orangeslice13]

The quivering fear is very apparent.
Errbody scared now

 

[USAFgolferVol]

The law has some pretty stupid exclusions, if you've been convicted of a DUI in the past 10 years you can't carry. Still can't carry inside a govt building.

LOL. People who don't know it's dangerous to drive drunk have NO business openly carrying a gun

 

[hog88]

Think what's a good thing?

I can say the same for those that vote Dem, both are too stupid to be responsible.

Should they be allowed to drive again or vote ?

I'm sure it's somewhat more "free" than a lot of places. I wouldn't consider NY a model for freedom.

 

[Rickyvol77]

Isn't the criminal justice system supposed to be about rehabilitation? A person released from prison isn't supposed to be a threat so why shouldn't they have their rights restored?

No it’s to keep violent people away from society and to keep them from harming more people

 

[Orangeslice13]

Got any proof? How are the intimidating people?

Btw
In case the sarcasm wasn’t completely obvious, I’m armed right now. I already had a permit to carry so I think this is a step in the right direction

 

[Orangeslice13]

That’s exactly my point. Every time my family visits they tell me I live in a free state.
Not perfect but better than most.

Edit. My family lives in New York….for now

I can't help but laugh at that response. Good one!

 

[USAFgolferVol]

Yes

 

[0nelilreb]

Yes

That’s interesting indeed what we decide is or isn’t ban worthy when it comes to rights and privileges.

 

[hog88]

No it’s to keep violent people away from society and to keep them from harming more people

Then we need to scrap the system and start all over.

They'll remove the exceptions incrementally. The reps had to leave some exclusions. That way they can have some more legislation to prove their gun rights bona fides in the future.

It is a delicate and prodigious process. Audits of details are required to ensure a fair and balanced system

 

[BisonVol]

No it’s to keep violent people away from society and to keep them from harming more people

Take for example, someone who is released after serving a ten year sentence for a first degree assault charge. If that person is so dangerous and so violent that they can't be given their full rights back after they've served their sentence, why are they released in the first place if the goal is to keep them away from society?

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

So what do I do with my conceal carry permit? Throw it away?

 

[Orangeslice13]

So what do I do with my conceal carry permit? Throw it away?

Nope.
It’s still recognized by other states

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

Nope.
It’s still recognized by other states

So then I will need to continue to renew it? Mine expires in 2025.
