Under what circumstance can a landlord prohibit tenants from possessing firearms in their rental property in Tennessee?

Under no circumstances
If the property is a school zone
If a sign is posted
If it's stipulated in the lease agreement

The correct answer is: If it's stipulated in the lease agreement

In Tennessee, a landlord cannot prohibit tenants from possessing firearms in their rental property under all circumstances (choice A), as individuals are allowed to lawfully possess firearms in their own homes. It is also not dependent on whether the rental property is located in a school zone (choice B) or if a sign is posted (choice C). However, a landlord can stipulate in the lease agreement (choice D) that tenants are not allowed to possess firearms in the rental property. This means that if a tenant signed a lease agreement that includes a clause prohibiting firearms possession, then they would be prohibited from doing so on the premises.
