OT National parks & guns. Please vote

Post by Nate Kiowa Jones »

I found this on another forum.

http://www.nraila.org/Legislation/Feder ... 055&issue=

The U.S. Department of the Interior has issued a proposed rule to eliminate, once and for all, this prohibition on Right-to-Carry in national parks and wildlife refuges. NRA is leading the effort to change this policy and we are very close to winning this important battle.

The NRA is asking that you respond.
Your comments will have the most impact if you use your own words. To assist you in drafting your comments, keep the following points in mind:



· Rules on carrying and transporting firearms should be consistent-across the board-with the laws of the state that includes the national park or wildlife refuge;

· Law-abiding citizens should not be prohibited from protecting themselves and their families while enjoying America's national parks and wildlife refuges;

· The new rules should provide uniformity across all federal lands, eliminating the patchwork of laws that create confusion for gun owners;

· Current regulations fail to account for the significant change in state laws since 1984. 48 states now have laws that permit laws that permit carrying and 40 have strong Right-to-Carry laws. Federal regulations should recognize the change in state laws and follow their lead, and;

· The new regulations should restore the rights of law-abiding gun owners who wish to transport and carry firearms for all lawful purposes on most DOI lands, just as they do now on Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management lands

Go here and leave a commit in support of this rule change.

Did it on Friday. Just happened across it as well.

Almost better to do it now, after the Heller decision than before.

At least you have 5 Justices who've "got your back" (kinda sorta) for your letter.

I may have done this already, but I submitted another just in case. Thanks for the heads up - I was wondering when we would hear the results.

The recent Heller v DC SCOTUS case should make this easy for them....

Should they do the wrong thing here, one lawsuit citing the Heller case should do the trick. :)

Further, the Texas Land Commissioner (who was the author of the concealed carry bill in Texas while he was a state rep.) is holding a large land donation to the F&WS until they get this right :D
