Tennessee Lawmakers Allow Guns In Bars

Handguns will soon be allowed in bars and restaurants in Tennessee under a new law passed by state legislators who voted to override the governor’s veto.

The legislation that takes effect July 14 retains an existing ban on consuming alcohol while carrying a handgun, and restaurant owners can still opt to ban weapons from their establishments.

Thirty-seven other states have similar laws.

The state Senate voted 21-9 on Thursday against Democratic Gov. Phil Bredesen’s veto, a day after the House also voted 69-27 to override.

They overrode critics, including Bredesen, who said it’s a bad idea to have guns and alcohol in close proximity.

What could go wrong? /
