Fear of Handguns Spreads!

From WBIR:
Newly crowned Miss Tennessee packs heat

She's a daddy's girl.

But don't think this year's Miss Tennessee is a pushover.

Ellen Carrington, 21, who was crowned Miss Tennessee on Saturday night, has a concealed weapons permit.

"I have a Smith & Wesson .40-caliber," Carrington told reporters on Sunday, "(with a) silver top and black body."

A Jackson native and senior at Union University, Carrington decided to get the permit because she was spending a lot of time traveling to and from Nashville at night. She said spending time at shooting ranges with her father, Pat, helped create an even deeper bond between the two.
Maybe we should ask Response Management to poll the new Miss Tennessee to see if she'd be more comfortable with something girly, like a .22 single shot rifle...
