Guns in Bars Law Struck Down

Permalink 06:26:16 pm, Categories: Bristol Local.

That happened even quicker than most of us said it would. This is what happens when we elect morons and half wits to state legislative positions. Knee-jerk, back assward Conservatives legislating on a whim and not even considering the obvious.
Bar and Restaurant owners get a break from the Tennessee Big Gov’t Legislature’s lack of respect for their rights.

Good Job, Ms. Bonnyman.

From the BHC:

Since earlier this year, those with gun carry permits, could carry their weapon into restaurants and bars. Now a ruling handed down in a Nashville courtroom, will strike down that law.

Chancellor Claudia Bonnyman ruled that Tennessee’s “Guns-In-Bars” law was unconstitutionally vague.

She said that currently Tennessee has no legal definition for what constitutes a bar, or a restaurant.

The Tennessee Legislature enacted the bill earlier this year, over the veto of Governor Phil Bredesen.

Lieutenant Governor Ron Ramsey says the bill will be brought back up for a vote, with corrections made to make it less vague, when the legislature reconvenes on January 12th.
