I support these petition.  Many thousands of Virginians, including myself,  carry handguns for their self defense without any problems all over the commonwealth.  Their is no reason to abitrarily ban carrying in State Forests.  State Forests are like any other place in Virginia, while generally safe their are rare acts of criminal voilence.  I would like to be better prepared for such occaisons.

Respectfully, 

Andrew Harrop
