    Two articles from today’s Tennessean linked by irony. In the readers’ comments section following the stories the arguments for/against guns rage with the same old cliche’s and the same old diatribe. I wonder were any of them paying attention.

  6. So more laws will solve this?

    Please pardon me, Mr. Governor, but that statement is so much political BS that only blind and ignorant sheep will believe it……..

    I’m reading this article and I’m hurting because of the damage that engineer’s stupid act caused. Do I want to see another waste of tax payers’ money spent on another useless law?
