Concealed Carry in State Forests
 

Please approve concealed carry in state forests.  I have not frequented state forests for quite some time because I was unable to protect myself by concealed carrying.  Unfortunately, there were several instances of criminal acts against women so I along with several of my friends stopped coming to the state forests because it was not safe and we were not comfortable traveling without protection.  With this law in place we will be able to again visit state forests.  Thank you.
