Weirich discusses revoked driver’s license cases in Shelby County
Shelby County District Attorney General Amy Weirich, seen here in 2015, opposes the open carry bill proposed in the Legislature. “We see how bad it’s been allowing people to carry guns in their cars,” Weirich said. “Imagine a universe where people are walking around with guns and law enforcement doesn’t know if you’re a convicted felon or why you’re carrying that gun and what you intend to do with it. That’s what open carry would look like.” (Daily Memphian file)
Revoked driver’s licenses and open carry gun permits were two of several issues District Attorney General Amy Weirich discussed during a speaking engagement at the Frayser Exchange Club on Thursday afternoon.
