Music Midtown festival canceled due to concerns over public gun laws

in what way should the authorities move to stop the actions of the gun owners?
I have no idea.

There are so many bad people in this country that the problem of street violence is truly intractable.

Things will only get worse in the coming decades.

The United States is truly in decline.


Have a nice day!
 
"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.
HOw illogical to say that 1st Amendment matters but not the 2nd

How about the fact that it wasn't the attendees who decided this !!! Does that escape you. ONe could simply say This music festival is not a gun-free zone .
But you hate that , it exposes your totalitarian side

No amendment is absolute. All have restrictions. If carrying guns to a concert results in the loss of thousands of people spending money in local businesses, leave your gun at home or skip the concert.

Nonsense. You want a right that doesn't exist.
