"I think the recent Virginia disaster — or catastrophe or nightmare or whatever you want to call it — has woken up a lot of people to the need for having guns available to law-abiding citizens," said Rep. Frank Niceley, R-Strawberry Plains. "I hope that is what this vote reflects."

Maybe we can get the names and e-mail addy's of TN's legislators that would likely vote on this bill and start a campaign to support them on it. Even though we're out of state, we can show some support. This has to start somewhere, and though I'd rather it start in PA, TN will do.
