In Memphis, as in the rest of Tennessee, if someone points a gun at you, it is legal to shoot them.
But if you work for almost ANYONE, especially a national chain, you are not allowed to have one at work. I know, do it anyway... But people who have to work somewhere like Burger King can’t afford to risk losing their job if they carry.
Point well taken. And many people are not qualified, or have the gumption to get a better job. They just make enough to live week to week and it is enough for them.
