The Williamson County attorney says that the fair kicking off Friday can still ban guns despite a recent state attorney general’s opinion suggesting otherwise.
County Attorney Bobby Cook argues that Williamson County Fair Association could still ban guns because the state law eliminating gun bans at parks should not apply because the site of the fair – the Agricultural Exposition Park – is more of “a civic center or other building facility” where firearms can still be prohibited. |

The entire fairgrounds is an 'other building facility'?
WTF is wrong with gov't officials in Tennessee?
And why can't they be deported to New Jersey? |

TO REMEMBER |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
