"A popular Atlanta music festival that brings in tens of thousands of people to the area over a two-day period in September was canceled Monday due to concerns over Georgia's gun law in public parks.
The decision was linked to a recent appeals court ruling related to the Atlanta Botanical Garden's ability to restrict guns from its property, as well as broader concerns about people bringing firearms to the concert, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported."

Looks like the freedom to assemble and hear ideas expressed through music, protected by the First Amendment is being curtailed by an extremist reading of the Second Amendment.
One notes that there are many rules and regulations set in place that govern the exercise of this first amendment right, which has not created a public health crisis, but seem to be none governing this second amendment right, which has.
