As a proud American and veteran of the U.S. NAVY,I am in favor of approving this bill.I also am a proud member of the VCDL.  I know that there are millions of law abiding citizens here in the Commonwealth as well as across the country that deserve the right to protect themselves in our state forests.Citizens who hold concealed handgun permits are well versed in firearms safety,and are especially aware of the responsibility that comes with owning such a permit.We are good ,decent Americans who care for our country and families whith all our hearts.Passing this bill allows us to protect ourselves and families if necessary.

Thank you for your support in consideration of this bill.God bless all of you: and god bless America!
