(AP) NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A person who legally possesses a gun would not have it seized during periods of martial rule under a proposal that has been signed into law by the governor.

Those are some tragic stories. No more so than mine though. You see, I moved to Florida recently and badly underestimated the heat, humidity and termites. I left my guns for just a day or two and the next though I knew the socks had nothing but sawdust, melted plastic and rusty powder in them. It was heart breaking. So much so that I can’t bear the thought of buying new ones.
Why do I think that TN Polizei will confiscate at first opportunity and let the courts sort it out later.
Makes sense, since many of the citizens so affected could already be at ground temperature as a result of being defenseless. That would minimize the number of subsequent court cases against the Polizei.
“Mine were lost on a fishing trip when the boat tipped over”
I know, I know... with all this rampant crime you just can’t leave your weapons home alone. Its sad that you had to load up your fishing boat that way...
I bet you were deep sea fishing too! Probably out over the deep water!
Darn!
Now, I swear on obambi's soul that, with the high winds, my boat, gun safe, and all my cases of ammo ended up somewhere deep in the middle of the bay.
To this day, I keep asking returning fishermen, crabbers, and oyster men if they have located or seen them. No luck so far....I remain heart-broken but hopeful.
How about a law banning the implementation of Martial Law?
What do you need 297 more for?
To start our own “300”, like the Spartans!
Ah
I’m in
Do we get issued some of those 6pack abs if we join?
No, the photoshop them in later.
You have my sincere condolences! My only suggestion is to keep checking the marina docks and boat launches in the hopes that one day some fishing party will be able to point you to the ocean depths where your valuables are lying........Keep the faith my friend!
There is only one way to prevent the State from confiscating guns. That is to stop (with deadly force if necessary) any State minion who tries.
