This is silly. What kind of responsible gunowner checks their gun anywhere? We suspect this was a set-up, to drum up publicity for this woman.

From what I remember, she was about to walk through a metal detector. And from personal experience, it's not unusual. As a physician and a legal carry holder in NYC, I once had to go to the Bronx VA. Before I went through the metal detector, I told the security officer that I had a pistol and a permit. He said that permit's no good here...and I said, "we're in NY City and my permit is good for anywhere in the state." He says "This is federal property."
Uh-oh...but, they let me check my piece in a gun locker that the FBI agents used.

This is silly. What kind of responsible gunowner checks their gun anywhere? I do not know the law in Tennessee, but in Arizona, public buildings that are posted against weapons have to have lockers for people to check their weapons in. I have done it many dozens of times at the library, courthouse, DMV, Recorders office, etc.
It makes more sense than leaving your weapon in a vehicle to be stolen.

If I remember this story correctly, I think there was a sign that said something like “check your gun”.
So, she did.
