Maryland-Based Beretta to Build New Firearms Plant in Tennessee

Quote
Several states began wooing Beretta from Maryland after the company raised objections to a wide-ranging gun control measure enacted there last year. Company officials said Wednesday that they have reached capacity in Maryland, requiring the expansion elsewhere.

"We look forward to building operations here and being part of your community for many years to come," Beretta said.

The other site finalists were Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas and Virginia.

Last year, lawmakers in Tennessee passed and the governor signed a measure that allows people with handgun carry permits to store firearms in their vehicles no matter where they are parked, including company parking lots.

When asked by a reporter if Beretta will allow its employees to keep guns in their cars at work, Reh responded, "if that's allowed by state law, yes."

Maryland screwed the pooch. Tennessee will benefit from their error of judgement.

Unfortunately these liberal bastions could care less that they have lost jobs and taxes... They just don't care.

That's right.  To them there's an endless supply of tax money to support their liberal causes.  They'll just hit the little residents harder.  Heck, isn't Maryland the State that passed a law to tax the rain that falls on a person's property?  :dunno:
