Legal in Tennessee?

In a previous post, I noted that a baseball bat is not a viable weapon of defense in Tennessee, because it is not legal. It would easily fall under the legal definition of club.

So, what to do, if you don't have a handgun carry permit, or are going into a gun free zone. Do you suppose the lights might go out while you are in there? Then carry a flashlight. The MAGLITE, available from Amazon or your local store is one choice.

Hold it by the light end if you need to swing it. Find some training in its use if you can. Stay in condition Yellow when you are out and about.

The best thing to do is avoid a fight whenever possible, but . . . if you can't, a solid flashlight is better than a snowball, don't you think?

Dangerous idea

When I first saw these holsters for sale, I wrote they were a bad idea. Maybe they are not selling too well, since they are on sale now.

Note to Wayne. Please have the folks at NRA Store just put those holsters in the dumpster. These things pose too great a danger to lawfully armed citizens who innocently come into contact with the police.
