Please go to http://www.savebiog ems.org/yellowst one/takeaction today and tell the Bush administration to reject this outrageous proposal. Under pressure from a group of senators, the Bush administration would weaken the current rule, which requires that firearms be unloaded and stored to prevent their ready use. This long-standing precaution has been crucial in controlling poachers within our nation's national parks and protecting certain species from extinction -- in particular, Yellowstone' s grizzly bear population. If passed, the new rule would likely increase poaching of imperiled species, such as Greater Yellowstone' s grizzlies and wolves. In Wyoming -- where state officials have already begun gunning down wolves -- the wolf population is especially vulnerable. Allowing visitors to carry loaded weapons would also pose a safety risk to millions of Americans who use our national parks every year. Our national parks should be a safe haven for all wildlife and citizens. Please go to http://www.savebiog ems.org/yellowst one/takeaction right away and tell the Bush administration you won't stand for loaded guns in our national parks! Thank you again for taking action on behalf of our parks and wildlife.

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 I'm all for CCWs (permit to carry concealed weapon), but I strongly believe permits should only be issued to people who can demonstrate competent shooting ability. I base that on my own inability to hit a paper plate from 10' with a 9mm Beretta; I can see no justification for allowing dangerously incompetent shooters to carry firearms in public. I also agree with CCW laws that prohibit carrying in establishments that sell alcohol. , Marsha Abernethy <bigslowsmom wrote: > > I'm with you. > > > > > robyn howell <robynehowell > > Saturday, July 19, 2008 5:31:14 PM > Re: << >> :Keep guns out of national parks! > > > There is no reason responsible law abiding citizens shouldnt be able to carry firearms anywhere, anytime. > Thanks, Robyn > > --- On Tue, 6/24/08, Shan <bestsurprise2002@ > wrote: > > Shan <bestsurprise2002@ > > << Alternative- Medicine- Forum >> :Keep guns out of > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
