  1. Not too hard I think...just have to call and make an appointment.
  2. IANAL, but IMO 62-35-125 allows security guards that have met certain requirements to be armed. However they can not use deadly force to protect property any more than anyone else can. They can only used it in the same self-defense situations as us. Now if an armed robber comes into a bank, the robber is causing a imminent threat of death or serious bodily harm to all in the bank. 39-11-612 allows for the same rules in defense of a third person as it does for self-defense in 39-11-611 Also the guard has the same citizen arrest powers we all do (40-7-109). Now he can not use deadly force just to effect the arrest but, 39-11-621 still says he can use it as long as it falls under 39-11-611 or 39-11-612. This is one of the circumstance that you are protecting life and property at the same time. It is the main reason for HB0070 that allows for the use of deadly force while protecting property if you are also allowed to use deadly force as otherwise allowed by law (39-11-611 & 39-11-612)
  3. The trouble is e-mails are also screened by assistants, I know from experience, so that may not help either.
  4. That is not good and should not be allowed. Of course she can have her own opinion, but if she is going to work for an elected official she should take and note all opinions of his constituents whether they jive with her's or not.
  5. I would prefer not to disarm at all.
  6. Welcome
  7. LOL....I'm sure everyone is happy about that as well.
  8. Here is the Handgunlaw.us GA page. On page 5 it says carry is allowed in road side rest areas, it doesn't mention a restriction about buildings....I also find no restriction 16-11-127
  9. This question again..... Yes, one in the chamber...even in my Glock.
  10. You can carry in restaurants that serve alcohol and in parks in FL. You probably don't have time to get one, but what I have got for use on my bike is a Center-of-Mass Safe I have looped the cable around a shock and the safe is inside the saddlebag. Not a good long term solution and there is a slight risk of being seen when transferring it to the safe, but not a bad alternative if you don't want to risk carry in an off-limits place. ...and NC, SC and GA as well as FL honor TN permits.
  11. SC and FL are definetly NOT Open Carry states. Handgunlaw.us is a good resource for other states' laws. Enjoy your trip!!
  12. It's weird (normal) legal wording. If you look there is a double negative...so it means if the law passed it would not apply in counties with population over 800k. In that amendment he is attempting to have it not apply to Shelby county if passed.
  13. In TN according to 39-11-611 if someone unlawfully and forcibly enters a residence, business, dwelling or vehicle the law presumes you are in fear of serious bodily harm or death whether that person is armed or not.
  14. http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19138 Do not start multiple threads in different areas on the same topic.
  15. According to 39-14-105(1) Theft under $500 is a Class A misdemeanor. 39-17-1352(f)(1) says if a HCP holder is convicted of a Class A misdemeanor he/she is supposed to surrender his/her permit and (f)(2) says he/she shall not be allowed to carry during the terms of the sentence for the offense. After the terms of the sentence the permit holder can apply for reinstatement per 39-17-1352(g) for $25. So it would seem that he can still carry before going to court, but if he is convicted, he can't until what ever sentence is imposed is done.
  16. Welcome
  17. Welcome
  18. It's still on the books is all I know.
  19. 39-11-614 says you can not use deadly force to protect property. However there are times where you might be considered defending property, even if a self-defense situation under 39-11-611. Like a car jacking. If a DA wanted to he might could try to prosocute you under 39-11-614 even though you would have been ok under 39-11-611. This bill removes that loophole, by saying that it is legal to used deadly force while protecting property, IF you are otherwise permited by law (39-11-611). So....this bill will not make TN like TX by allowing the use of deadly force to protect property You can still only use deadly force within the self-defense laws. But when/if this becomes law, you won't have to be worried about 39-11-614 even you were protecting property and life at the same time.
