I got the chance Sat. to ask one of our speakers about this hearing. I was told that the chance of this being successful was 50/50. He said they actually had a good case. He said that if they were successful that when the legislature went back into session that it would be quickly fixed and that I should not worry about it.
I hope he's right! I hope the lawsuit will be thrown out.

To be honest....I almost wouldn't mind losing the case.

Then legislator could fix it by simply repealing 39-17-1305 all together. That would make it fairly simple to interpret and not vauge at all. Then any place that serves alcohol, regardless of whether they are a bar, restaurant, bowling alley or whatever could just post a 39-17-1359 sign or not.

I'm dubious about the quickly fixed and not worry about it part. If they pass a new law, it will have to go to the Gov. again for signature. Then back to conference committees and voted on again to override. After all the bad press the last time, I'm not so sure we'll get the kind of "veto proof" majority we got last time. Never mind there haven't been any incidents, since when have facts mattered to a liberal? At best, I'd bet if it's overturned we won't be carrying into restaurants again from Nov. until July 1. At best.

Be careful what you wish for. And if they do have to go back to ground zero, I'd rather they just do away with businesses being able to post at all. At least to where it has any force of law whatsoever.

This one has gotten NO PRESS since the date of my original post. I doubt there will be a crowd. I'm at a loss what to think about the press, the media and especially the Tennessean's total lock down on this hearing. It's like this Cheek guy has put a complete gag order out. Not even a peep out of the publicity whores like Dread and Rayburn.

I'm really concerned about this. Considering we have an attorney general who thinks regardless of the wording of the law, local parks don't have to post and that apartments can ban even HCP holding residents from having guns, a Chancellor who's husband is a raving liberal and a very politically connected alcohol industry hot shot attorney against us. This could go terribly wrong.

Hopefully Bonneyman will throw it out on it's face.
