This is very interesting, but I don’t think the secular Left will think too highly of it…

From Tennessean via WZ:

If a Tennessee grocery store bans guns on its property and a black bear or wild hog kills or injures a person who otherwise would be carrying his or her gun, the gun owner would be allowed to sue the property owner if a newly introduced bill became law.

Sponsored by Sen. Dolores Gresham, R-Somerville, Senate Bill 1736 has a very specific purpose.

“It is the intent of this section to balance the right of a handgun carry permit holder to carry a firearm in order to exercise the right of self-defense and the ability of a property owner or entity in charge of the property to exercise control over governmental or private property,” the bill states.

To accomplish that goal, the legislation allows any Tennessean with a valid gun permit to sue a property owner in the event of injury or death provided the incident occurred while in a gun-free zone.

The legislation places responsibility on the business or property owner of the gun-free area to protect the gun owner from any incidents that occur with any “invitees,” trespassers and employees found on the property, as well as vicious and wild animals and “defensible man-made and natural hazards.”

The bill does not define defensible man-made and natural hazards.

Simply put, if a place of business doesn’t allow you to protect yourself via your Second Amendment rights, they assume all responsibility if something awful takes place.

Seems fair enough.

Every person has the right to protect themselves, and liberal politicians who care about nothing except their political careers shouldn’t have a say.

Good for Tennessee.

Can’t wait to read some of the backlash regarding this bill from Lefties who believe no one should own a gun.
