We need this law in ALL States in the United States of America.

Yes and no. I suspect that many of the businesses here in Tennessee will use this as an excuse to find out who carries and then find another excuse to let them go to avoid liability. Good in concept; not so sure it is well written.

Looks like this law is directed towards customers rather than employees.

It's not JUST the workers it protects.
It's the customers.
Hopefully these "Gun-Free Zones" will become SUED out of business.
Then businesses can keep their "Gun-Free Zones" it they want them.

It sounds theoretical to many now but the crime rate and terrorism rates are likely to increase. Even in Tennessee, Nashville is the home to many mosques and some hillbilly towns in rural areas are now Mexican towns.
It is sad that we care so little about preserving our own culture.

It's time we put a bounty on all criminals.
And the quicker all citizens of legal age become concealed carriers, and become proficient with their own firearm, the safer we'll all be.

Spent the last 4 days in Pigeon Forge TN and didn’t see a single “No Guns” sign. Maybe Dollywood is no guns, but we didn’t go there.

Good law. Leave concealed carry permit holders alone. Period.

About time!
Now just a single random gunshot, or you ‘believe’ that chipped, notched wood could have been a shot, or you declare you heard a bang. The business had better now respond like the nannies they are, respond quickly, immediately & properly, or remove their stupid signs or else talk to your lawyer.
I know, I feel so ahead of the curve. lol

Private businesses should be allowed to decide for themselves about concealed carry. I won’t patronize a business that requires me to disarm and I owned a business and allowed my employees to carry while working. No different then the bathroom issue. You do as you wish with your business and I will do as I wish would mine. That is called freedom.
To: Yosemitest
Bad move. 2A allies with whiny socialism.
Whatever the courts do will appear to line up with something pernicious now. Anti socialism or anti 2A.
Nobody ever forced you to go to a private place that didn’t welcome you.

Also what happened if you did go in such a place with a concealed arm. I suspect it was not a crime of itself. Only if you were told to go and refused would it be a crime... And that, only of trespassing.
This just gave honorable freedom affirming rednecks the bad name of hicks.

Good, I’ve been advocating this for years. We need it everywhere. Make the businesses liable, watch the insurance industry change their tune and watch the no guns signs come down.

To: Ingtar
This is more aimed at businesses demanding their customers be unarmed to do business with them. Terminating armed employees is one thing, having unlimited liability because you disarmed your customers is something else.
