Dude should have got a permit for his 1st amendment rights too. You cant yell fire in a theater. /s

I wonder if he is a company man and this is all just a smokescreen to further the agenda of gun control. Honestly you can't really trust anyone. We already know that the FBI likes to set people up and turn them into terrorists.

Yea, that crossed my mind as well. While not everyone that is in (or has been in) government LEO service is in cahoots with one another, its not out of the realm of possibility. What he did was completely and utterly stupid, but no different from the asshole Chief of Police in Chicago.

I don’t care if they’re licensed legal firearms, people who are not highly trained… putting guns in their hands is a recipe for disaster. So I’ll train our officers that there is a concealed carry law, but when somebody turns with a firearm in their hand the officer does not have an obligation to wait to get shot to return fire and we’re going to have tragedies as a result of that. I’m telling you right up front.

It just concerns me that he came and said what his intentions were/are. Seems like if he really meant what he said, he wouldn't have said it. I dunno. I guess we will have to wait and see.

Precisely.

This man has been convicted of no crime that I know of but yet the government has suspended his permit. Let this be an example as to why one should not first ask permission to keep and bear arms.

Logic follows that if you have to ask permission, then it's a privilege, and not a right. Privileges can be revoked at any time for any reason as this case demonstrates.

Exactly! Permits are permission slips to do something that would otherwise be illegal. The Second Amendment is only a privilege according to them.

That one sucks here's the better one

This part of the article I find especially interesting:

Yeah, that's all we need, another SWAT team.

If true, that is extremely statist behavior. I know TN is a very dangerous place with a lot of crime, but even in TN, most towns of 500 people don't need anything more than 1 part-time cop, at most. There are towns several times that size without cops where I live.

Unfortunately in TN, you cannot carry openly without government permission. It might be a holdover from the slave days. 50 years ago, gun laws were horrible throughout the South. TN has made some progress but gun laws are still pretty restrictive

He got his permit back.

good

In the normative world, this would be a non-issue. In the positive world, Yeager is a fool because though his words SHOULD be a non-issue, clearly they are not from the standpoints of Them.

We ought not have to be careful in such ways, but that is not our reality. Find the ways of saying the same things such that They are given the least toehold by which to act against thee. It isn't right, but neither are these times in which we live.

Very true, and I do believe I see what you've done there.

The government will do anything if the People allow them to do it. The Constitution doesn't authorize gun permits... you don't need one. Gun laws are all unconstitutional... this is why there are states with 'constitutional carry'—recognizing that the Second Amendment is your permit!

"Most folks middle America, we'll pay our taxes, just leave our guns alone. And it seems they aren't willing to do that. I am not overly optimistic things are gonna go well," he said.

Yes... exactly. I got my license to carry handgun, but when you get a gun 'permit', it contracts you into their system. The states that practice constitutional carry are obeying the supreme law of the land; whereas, states like mine that require a permit to carry open or concealed are in violation.

James Yeager poo-pooed the armed march on Washington as being too dangerous.
