Tell your Reps NO to Red Flag Laws
If you have to ask permission you're not free
All of these gun laws are unconditional .
Claim and exercise of a constitutional right cannot be converted into a crime.
I live in Tennessee. The only time I hear about guns by our state legislature, it’s about yet another relaxation of some restriction
And thats false you can carry in bars and restaurants that serve alcohol if you don't drink as long as they dont have a no firearms sign posted at the entrance.
Only if you’re not drinking. The only time you can use your sidearm when you’re intoxicated like I am 3 out of 7 days is if you’re in your home “castle” then the law doesn’t matter. But, you definitely can’t goto a bar and get drunk and have a gun on you. That’s manslaughter! Or even worse
This attorney should be in a prison cell if he has ever prosecuted any American citizen for anything to do with guns unless its a stolen gun.
What a world we live in when your view, as a constitution-protected citizen of the United States, is considered extremist. Hell country.
wrong, learn the law. oh i forgot you people lost a brain years ago.
Sounds like TN has some catching up to do with TX.
This dude is not telling the story correctly. He is clearly anti gun.
We still got constitutional carry before Texas did 😂👉
@corey mac it's not a race, but congrats...you're in first place.
@@coreymac5578 in Texas we can carry, rifles concealed carry as long as a bullet not in the head/chamber
@@coreymac5578 I just moved to TN if someone break in my house do y’all have the stand your ground law?
Y'all need to make your state true constitutional carry
This is how you tell a dog to bite, but then you muzzle him.
Love how they show a bunch of braced pistols im their little video when it's currently illegal to have that without form 1. TN gun laws are actually deceptive, making them seem more loose than they actually are.
That brace thing is just an opinion by the atf, its not law at all lol.
Tennessee is better than Texas
So can I conceal carry with the intent to go armed without a permit ? I don’t have any felonies or convictions
Still need to repeal the federal gun free school zone law or at least add an addendum that allows you to traverse the area by car or on foot while open or concealed carrying. As if stands you still need a permit to be within 1,000 feet of a school and it's a felony if you get caught which is just dumb if you're just driving through.
Not just driving by. That would fall under the castle doctrine.
@@K1-rh7rr might want to check again. If you get stopped in a school zone without a carry permit you can be charged.
Thank you!! I haven’t been convicted of anything and I carry a gun everyday. Thankfully my great state of Tennessee has finally caught up. And again if someone pulls a gun on me…. That’s go time! As a different situation keep alcohol and guns away from each other unless you’re at home.
If someone isbtrying to run you off the road that is an imminent threat of death or great bodily harm, and deadly force is 100% justified to defend yourself.
no you never draw unless they have one
@@Jeymez, Lol
You can carry into a bar if you don't have alcohol yourself.
So can I concealed carry without a permit?
Yes
Bruen begs to differ. DUIs =/= loss of RKBA. Drinking in taverns while intoxicated or not was common behavior among our Founders during their deliberations. There exist zero valid analogues (text, history, and tradition [1791]) supporting this modern restriction. These “laws” need to be challenged by FPC and other groups posthaste.
And this is the least restrictive place in America?!??? WTF!!! What has happened to this free nation!!! This country has fallen to socialism!!! God help us!!!
I think Kentucky laws are alot different. Not sure but I think Kentucky is less restrictive. 🤔
That was the WORST explanation of the "intent to go armed" law I could imagine. Could someone perhaps more coherent please explain? If you can't carry a firearm "with intent to go armed" what is the point? You are lawfully going armed so you can defend yourself or others from unjustified dangerous attacks against innocence. That is part of the intent behind the 2nd amendment and clearly stated in the text of said amendment.
So you don’t have a second amendment
Tennesseans: Is Tenn. becoming more 2A-friendly, or less? Do you expect restrictions on firearms to decrease, or increase? Does it matter what part of the state you live in?
Paul, a NYC resident seriously looking to move to Tennessee
I have no problem wiyh constitutional carry, I have a problem that far to many folks don't get to training to carry, or use safely.
A gun is not a threat, I've carried for years doing my job, and have never used my gun as a threat, my voice is the first line of defense, the gun final line of defense If it clears the holster, somebodies getting shot
Do gun laws work? Why not ask an Ex-Senator Dramacrat antigun Leland Yee who was into arms trafficking and spent time in Federal.
So i got a crazy ass uncle from my stepdads side of the family. So hes came at me with force several times in the past (to kill me. He killed my cat, threatened to kill me for looking at him wrong) so if he gets out of jail and i were to buy a gun and shot and killed him would i be in my rights to self defense? Im just curious.
Only if you’re in fear for your life. Now delete that comment. If the courts find that, that’s premeditation.
Based on these comments, this television station must broadcast in small towns. Hilarious and I’d love to see more! Thanks!
Welcome to socialism how's it working for everyone? Freedom versus socialism now Semper Fi USA an Freedom
You cannot carry in Gun Free Zones, & Federal Buildings. This Lawyer is not speaking correctly. TN has Stand your Ground Law, research.
Constitution: Come and take it!! 😂😂
I personally have a right n could careless what gang says. I will carry and I will not ask. Says shall not be infringed. Over my unalived body will mine be infringed. Cant claim to brave if you let equal man rule you while you also claim to be free
