We’re assuming that it’s now O.K. to carry our guns into the Tennessee Capitol.

After all, if, in the opinions of our legislators, that we’re not at risk from the their law allowing guns to be carried into restaurants and parks, it only makes sense that they’d allow us to also carry them into the halls of our legislature.

In the interest of consistency, surely gun-happy state legislators like Curry Todd, Brian Kelsey and Paul Stanley have no problem in removing the security guards checking for guns at the entrances to the Legislature.

In their blind devotion to the Second Amendment, it only makes sense that they wouldn’t want to prevent us from carrying our guns into Legislative Plaza when we visit them.

If it’s good enough for restaurants and parks, it should be good enough for them.
