Greetings, readers:
Lee tweeted the same day, thanking the General Assembly and National Rifle Association for their efforts in backing the bill.
While some Tennesseans see this as a win for the constitutional carry movement, others feel it ignores the pain suffered from gun violence.
Just days after the bill was signed into law, a 17-year-old was killed and a police officer was wounded Monday afternoon in a shooting at Austin-East Magnet High School in Knoxville. This is now the fifth Knoxville teen to lose his or her life to violent crime this year. And, in North Nashville, a 3-year-old was shot and killed with four victims wounded.
