- Concerning Constitutional Open Carry, Deputy House Speaker Steve McDaniel is reported in the Memphis Flyer, (as quoted by the Tennessee Firearms Association) to have said,
- Every gang-banger in Memphis will end up packing. Can you imagine?
Well, Mr. McDaniel, I can imagine that gang-bangers in Memphis, as well as Nashville and Knoxville are already packing.
In case you didn't know, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Gang-bangers who are felons are already prohibited from packing by Federal law.
What you should have said, MR. Deputy Speaker, is,
All law abiding, low income resident of Memphis will be able to defend themselves against gang-bangers. Can you imagine?I suppose your stance means that you are a member of the victim disarmament society.
I thought we had already buried Jim Crow.

This is not a hard concept. The anti-choice-to-carry firearms crowd commits intellectual dishonesty every time they voice the specious argument that liberalizing carry provisions will result in more criminals carrying weapons. The criminals already carry weapons, illegally! They don't care!
