I would still prefer we had single issue up and down votes and not play these games. This time it may favor me but last time and next time...
Better to not play the game.
We are simply playing 'their' game.
I'd love for that to be the case, but I think showing them that we can play the same game sends a message- that they're going to get what they give...
so maybe in the long run, good may come of it..
I understand your position- taking the high road.. but the low road is better progress than a stalemate...
Well its mixed news ... sure we'll be able to CCW in National Parks ... but we're all going to start getting screwed on credit card interest and fees (basically the credit card part forbids the CC companies from punishing the deadbeats ... so you KNOW they'll end up punishing EVERYONE, but that's par for the course for the left, equal distribution of misery).
But hell, the Credit Card bill was gonna pass anyway so we might as well get something out of it :p
^^very true! Good point.
Remember the old song; "just a spoonful of sugar......makes the medicine go down......"?!

New Rule on Guns in Parks Takes Effect February 22
Tuesday, February 09, 2010
On February 22, a new law on guns in national parks takes effect. The law repeals a National Park Service rule that has long prohibited Americans from lawfully possessing firearms in national parks for self-defense.
The new law, passed last spring by an overwhelming bipartisan vote in the U.S. Senate, will allow people to possess, carry and transport firearms in national parks, in accordance with state law.
However, many details remain to be worked out. Reports indicate that National Park Service officials are debating issues such as the definition of “federal facilities,” where firearms will remain prohibited under a different federal law.
NPS officials are expected to issue further information as February 22 approaches, and some parks have already published information on their new policies. Because state laws vary greatly, before you visit a national park, you should check the park’s website or call the park headquarters for more information. NRA will also provide updates as they become available.
If what i heard on the news this morning you would need a CCW. Which is pointless because if you have a CCW you were allowed to carry anyways right? I want to open carry where i go fishing/camping. Pretty deep in where i go, i have seen quite a few large bears, only one close enough to cause me any concern, but lets face it. Im more worried about the two legged bears rather than a wild animal that already fears me.
I hope you are not correct on the CCW. Will have to monitor that...
As for 2 legged bears...
