I posted the original message because I thought it might be of interest to those who live in or visit Tennessee who would like to know about their options for gun-free dining. There are some who seem intent on diverting this to tiresome and predictable arguments about guns rights in general or "how we do it in Florida." You know who you are, and I would like to invite you to take any more of the same to the myriad other sub-forums and threads where your remarks would be more appropriate or indeed welcome. You really don't have to find some way to hijack every single thread, including this one. You should also review the purpose of state groups, which you will find under the heading for each state:
"This is a group, not a forum. Groups often serve as safe havens for members who share similar interests and viewpoints. Individuals who post messages contrary to a particular group's stated purpose can be excluded from posting in that group. For detailed information about this group and its purpose, click here"
