Governor Bill Lee doesn't think the courts should worry about the Constitution. Tennessee Governor Defends Gun Control: Don't Worry About 'Abstract Categories of Constitutionality'
Bill Lee, the Republican Governor of Tennessee, has been defending gun control for years, but the state’s latest reply brief in a case challenging Tennessee’s recently struck down “intent to go armed” clause is particularly offensive, asking the court to set aside the “abstract categories of constitutionality.”
I am sick to death of Republicans who are really Progressives in hiding. He doesn't think the courts should involve themselves in issues of the Constitution.
Despite Governor Lee’s rhetoric positioning himself as a conservative, the state’s latest brief would be right at home among the attorneys general of New Jersey, New York, and California for its nonchalant treatment of civil liberties and constitutional rights.
A real conservative should challenge him. (Hat tip to Jews Can Shoot)
