SB 1644 is on the way to be law.

State Senate has passed the Tennessee Firearms Freedom Act
http://www.chattanoogan.com/articles/article_152526.asp

Track this bill @
http://wapp.capitol.tn.gov/apps/BillInfo/Default.aspx?BillNumber=SB1644

The House passed a companion bill HB 1796

http://wapp.capitol.tn.gov/apps/BillInfo/Default.aspx?BillNumber=HB1796

I was reading the summary for SB1644 and this appeared... "This bill requires a firearm manufactured or sold in Tennessee under this bill to have the words 'Made in Tennessee' clearly stamped on a central metallic part."

Let's hope people in Tennessee make decent firearms and are not one of the circles of, "Made in China" jokes. :)

This is so great!!!

It's long past time for people to put a shot across Washington's bow.

I hope this is just the beginning. Important as gun rights are, there a great many other sovereignty issues that need to be addressed. We don't need New England and the Left Coast to tell us how to live.

If I may repeat myself: Print it in large type so the feds can read it without their spectacles.

Shot across the bow, yes; better yet would be if all the states finally band together and put a political torpedoe directly amidships of the now socialist central(federal) governemnt that they, the states, created; tizzz long overdue to rein in these arrogant, tyrannical dictatorial #&*'s:cuss:

It's not socialist(??): You can be, under the Patriot Act, be decalred an "ememy of the stae, IE; ""domestic terrorist", be taken away, held forever without trial, or benefit of possible counsel, (all in direct violation of one's constitutional protections); Dept. of homeland Security issues a "policy" document declaring that individuals invarying categories encompassing specific belief(s), opinions, or position(s) are suspect terrorists; the central governemnt has moved to take ownership of "private" enterprises; etc., etc: Sounds much like the former U.S.S.R. that we were propagandized to fear, despise, and do battle with. It's NOT socialist(??); okay, perhaps not fully; so far must we go before it is socialist/communist?

I said it was a fascist regime...Mussolini was a fascist--and until today I thought Hitler was too...but perhaps he was a socialist....but anyway--I never disagreed with you--I just thought fascism was worse than socialism...perhaps I am wrong...

BUT all that aside--you are absolutely 100% correct....I have been saying the exact same things for some time now.
