CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. – The parking lot in front of Freedom Deli at 2088 Lowes Drive in Clarksville was filled Friday, March 29 with over 200 supporters of the 2nd Amendment at a Rally for the rights of gun owners.

Tennessee State Senator Mark Green spoke from the back of a truck and lent his support to the cause, beginning by reading from the 2nd Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. “A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed,” Green said.

Green added that it was clear to him that the authors of the 2nd Amendment intended to provide the citizens a means to defend freedom against government whether it’s at home or abroad. Green also talked about legislation currently being considered by Tennessee lawmakers that may affect the rights of gun owners.

I’m headed to Clarksville tomorrow, would have gone sooner if I’d known about the rally. In our neighborhood most of the mailbox kiosks have two niches, one for the Leaf-Chronicle, the other for the Tennessean, except nobody gets the liberal Nashville rag anymore, one reason being that the Tennessean is a cheerleader for the Murfreesboro Mosque when it’s not busy praising Obama & the Clintons.

My guess is the youtube channel “Hickok45” will probably be posting a video of this rally as it’s in his backyard so to speak.
