Anyone has a right to operate a boat on Tennessee’s lakes and waterways provided they have passed a boater safety course, or to drive a motor vehicle on state roads provided they have passed the state’s driving test.
Those provisions are necessary to enhance public safety, just as is the state’s firearm safety course, which is required to obtain a permit to carry a handgun in Tennessee.
Rep. Scotty Campbell of Mountain City wants to change that. “The Constitution does not say that you have to pay money for a permit to have permission to carry a firearm,” he said in introducing a bill that would allow state residents to go armed without a permit. |

The scribe that wrote this lacks the common sense.
Constitutional carry is the law in more than a dozen states and has not been a problem.
Perhaps the writer should do some research before he accuses others of what he is guilty of. |

"[T]he Supreme Court has interpreted the Second Amendment as giving Americans a constitutional right to keep and bear arms."
BZZZZZT!!! Disqualified.
Anyone who fails (or refuses) to understand the foundational principle of God-given fundamental rights is automatically eliminated from participating in any 'debate.' |

TO REMEMBER |
| Gentlemen may cry, 'peace, peace'—but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! Is life so precious, or peace so dear, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death! — Patrick Henry to the Virginia Convention on March 23, 1775. |
