Interesting turn of events

It appears that the Metro Nashville City Council will be reconsidering guns-in-parks:

Councilman Sam Coleman wants to allow guns in Metro’s rural parks, so visitors to isolated parks could protect themselves.

The thing I find interesting is that Sam Coleman was one of the most vocal opponents of allowing carry permit holders to carry in Metro Parks. He went so far as to say that anyone who would even WANT to carry in parks must be a vigilante. He has a carry permit, BTW.
I may skip the TFA meeting tonight, where Richard Hamblen will be speaking about his case.
Either way I go, it will be an interesting night.
UPDATE: You can watch the “Guns in Parks Public Forum” from July 30 here. Take your blood pressure meds before watching it, though.
