The State Supreme Court selected Gov. Phil Bredesen's lawyer as the new AG. I am assuming that Robert E. Cooper, Jr. is a Democrat like the governor. As we know, Democrats are a mixed bag. There are some who have supported 2A issues, such as Rep. Ben West and Rep. Frank Buck, and there are those who have opposed us, ie. Speaker Jimmy Naifeh.
As we know, outgoing AG Summers issued the opinion regarding open carry found on the front of this site in response to questions asked by Rep. West. AG Summers also opined that SSN disclosure is not required for purchasing firearms. However, AGSummers opined that the HCP is a "recreational license", therefore an applicant must disclose his/her SSN on the application depite the Federal Privacy Act.
Keeping these issues in mind, what does everyone think about the selection of Cooper ? Is he goodor bad on 2A issues ?
