Please allow concealed carry in state forrests.  Permit holders are already trusted to carry almost everywhere else, state forrests should not be an exception.

Approve State Forest concealed carry
 

The ability to defend one self and loved ones should not stop at the entrance to state forests.  Virginia permit holders have proven to be extremely good citizens and rightfully deserve this option.

Do the right thing and allow concealed carry in Virginia's state forests.

Our need to protect ourselves and our familes don't end upon crossing the border into a state forest.  Our right to carry the means to do so shouldn't end there, either.

Please expedite the change to approve concealed carry in state forests for CHP holders.

People do not become criminals as soon as they step into a state forest. If it is legal for me to carry anywhere else in Virginia, it should be legal in state forests.
