This may bring new meaning to 'exposed' moves...

Ah, the days of dodging bullets from some dumb f*ck shooting at climbers on Dome Rock were a distant memory...now I'll have to where body armor in the NPs.

End?

I'm surprised at you Flouride. What "end"?



Over reaching park despots used a regulation meant to deter the temptation to poach overly tame game in order to create their own little crypto-fascist kingdoms all papered over with sweetness and light.

Remember, "This isn't a people's park this is a national park"?

Pretty hypocritical that felonies commited in the parks were prosecuted under state law, but when you were in the park state laws no longer exist?


And you need only go to the fifth sentence of the article to find doublespeak;
"in the nation's highly protected parks,... where employees, including most rangers, are unarmed."

Remarkable!
The employees are unarmed,................. except the ones that ARE.

Naaaah,.. no bias in THAT article.



Yeah, pretty scary huh? The parks are now back in the United States of America.











Oh, ... and if you would like to reduce carnage and tragedy in this country try taising the standards for having a driver's license.
Its not as sympathetic as condemning guns but would save far more lives.

Oh boy. This thread could get some action. Here come the crazy folks babbling about the black helicopters coming to take their guns.

packin' might be good on parks that go through the Appalachian trail. But if hiking the AT, better bring other protection too...

Well, since things must be "well-regulated," then banning guns in NPs is just part of that regulation. So allowing them is unconstitutional, right?

And are you part of a militia? What's it called? How do you regulate yourselves?

If you aren't part of the militia, and you own a gun then are you in violation of the Constitution. Right?

And what exactly is an "arm?" A handgun, a rifle, a cruise missile with a nuclear warhead?

Yup, quoting the 2nd amendment makes it all perfectly clear.

Because we live in a country where the political process is dominated by that sterling example of where the evolutionary process has failed- male Caucasians..
