A bill that would allow some Tennessee teachers to carry a gun at school is heading to Gov. Bill Lee’s desk.
HB 1202/SB 1325 has drawn heavy attention from parents, teachers, students and law enforcement. The bill would allow specially-trained teachers to carry handguns in their classrooms. Under the bill, parents would not know whether their child’s teacher was armed or not.
I’d add that I personally am pretty unenthusiastic about school uniforms, though as per the above, uniform mandates do not violate the First Amendment.
