Please allow open and concealed carry in Virginia's State Forests,  I feel that it would help prevent crimes by providing a means to protect ones self.  This in turn would stop the would be criminal by not knowing who all is carring or who around mite be.  I know when my family and I travel the trails around the area i would feel safer if we could, as this would give the means of self defence.  Their have been to many problems that could have been avoided had the victims been armed.

Thank you for your time.  M. Czap
