Please approve concealed carry in State Forests
 

I support the proposed regulation change.  Please expedite the change!

I served 20 years on active duty in the Marines to defend our Nation, the Constitution and our freedoms.  One of those rights is the Second Amendment which states our rights to bear arms shall not be infringed. This amendment is based in a large part on the same right to bear arms that is in the Virginia Constitution.  We can currently carry in State Parks, we can carry in local government owned parks, we can carry in National Forest and we will soon be able to carry in our National Parks, we need to add our State Forest to this.
