Just read this today...sometimes we win one.
WASHINGTON – People will now be able to carry concealed firearms in some national parks and wildlife refuges.
An Interior Department rule issued Friday allows an individual to carry a loaded weapon in a park or wildlife refuge — but only if the person has a permit for a concealed weapon, and if the state where the park or refuge is located also allows loaded firearms in parks.
The rule overturns a Reagan-era regulation that has restricted loaded guns in parks and wildlife refuges. The previous regulations required that firearms be unloaded and placed somewhere that is not easily accessible, such as in a car trunk.

Surely you're not suggesting that this could be a back-handed way to "set up" normally law-abiding gun owners?

That's funny, I thought the Gipper was pro gun.

Probably not as much trying to set anyone up as it is a way of saying that they gave in on this issue. We're not supposed to notice it is a superficial victory with no real substance.

Yup, that's to keep you safe in there.

I'm just trying to prevent you guys from becoming felons... Do not mess with the federal govement when it comes to guns. They don't play fair or use lube.
