Now Murfreesboro Republican Bill Ketron says any compromise will hinge on employers, recounting what one boss told him:
“His issue is ‘I should be able to post just like the restaurants do. If I can post and say “That’s my property, you’re not allowed to bring guns onto my property,”’ he doesn’t have a problem with it.”
Not good enough, says John Harris of the Tennessee Firearms Association, which rejects any bill letting employers opt out. Harris sees lawmakers choosing between guns and business, saying quote “you cannot serve two masters.” While he thinks Republican leaders will side with business, some rank-and-file might not go along. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our Founding Fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the second amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of the country. For that reason I believe the second amendment will always be important. --JOHN F. KENNEDY |
