“Using Gun Laws as a Weapon”

http://content.usatoday.com/communities/ondeadline/post/2010/05/tenn-governor-again-vetoes-guns-in-bars/1

The governor of Tennessee has vetoed a bill that would allow guns in bars and restaurants. The governor isn’t against the 2nd Amendment; he just likes to keep shoot-outs strictly in saloons or on dusty streets, where they belong.

Supporters of the bill say that allowing guns inside would actually help bars and restaurants, because nothing ensures prompt service like a loaded firearm.

Statistically, guns in bars can be shown to prevent knife fights.
