TPMDC checks into a local report that a man brought a gun to a heated weekend town hall meeting held by Rep. Steven Cohen (D-TN) in Memphis. The bad news: Yes, an attendee was packing heat. The good news, if you can call it that: He did so in accordance with concealed weapons laws and was fully cooperative when law enforcement asked him to bring the gun out to his car.
