Please approve concealed carry in State Forests!
 

Please expidite the concealed carry!  I hike with my wife in the state forests, and find it ironic and sad that I can currently protect myself outside the forest but not in!  Self protection is one of the most basic human rights, and concealed carry is vital to that.

As a valid concealed-carry permit holder, I have been duly trained, checked, and certified responsible enough to carry outside the state forest.  It's time to recognize that right inside the state forest as well.
