Which of the following locations is NOT a prohibited place to carry a firearm in Tennessee, even with a valid permit?

Schools
Parks
Bars
Private properties posted with 'No Gun' signs

The correct answer is: Parks

In Tennessee, carrying a firearm in public parks is generally permitted for individuals with a valid handgun carry permit. This means that parks are not classified as a prohibited location for carrying firearms, allowing permit holders to exercise their rights in these areas. On the other hand, other locations like schools, bars, and private properties marked with 'No Gun' signs are explicitly designated as places where carrying a firearm is restricted, even for those with permits. Schools are sensitive areas due to their environments, bars are often restricted due to alcohol consumption concerns, and private property owners have the authority to dictate whether firearms are allowed on their premises. Thus, parks stand out as an exception where permit holders are allowed to carry their firearms legally.
