guns & parks

Showdown over packing heat in national parks

 

"the latest showdown over U.S. gun rights, which would ease the ban on loaded weapons within some of the 58 national parks and 333 other sites managed by the U.S. National Park Service. The dispute involves a proposed rule change that would allow visitors with concealed weapons permits to carry their firearms in national parks, as long as doing so also would be legal under state law. Rifles and shotguns and “open carry” of loaded handguns would remain illegal in the parks. "

 

Where do you stand on guns in parks?

This is great. I truly support the righ to keep and arm bears :P

Just...another safety measure. I'm all for it.

The right of the people to keep and bear arms "SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED"

Pass the ammo please!!!

By all means, bring a gun. Heck, bring LOTS of guns to the parks. It's the only way we're going to take a bite out of the ever increasing incidents of thefts of pic-a-nic baskets.

Heston comes with us to the parks! HECK YES I support it! You want bears attacking your campsite and your only defense is rocks if your kid is threatened? Think of it that way. You use your 45 to protect your family.

I always pack..when I got camping!

I'm certainly glad that guns are prohibited in the NC State Parks.

"as long as doing so also would be legal under state law" That sentence tells me all I need to know about this one. If the gun is legal outside of the park, then it should be legal inside it. I can understand the issue if were talking about playground type of park, but national parks should be just like anywhere else.

I vote YES on having guns in parks. Is my "leftist agenda" showing? :)
