Quote from Tennessee Supreme Court,


This declaration ... gives to every man the right to arm himself in any manner he may choose, however unusual or
dangerous the weapons he may employ, and thus armed, to appear wherever he may think proper, without molestation or hindrance, and that any law
regulating his social conduct, by restraining the use of any weapon or regulating the manner in which it shall be carried, is beyond the legislative
competency to enact, and is void.
