concealed gun permit and parks
 

I am e-mailing you to express my opinion that I consider our 2nd amendment right to keep and bear arms a very important part of our freedom in this United States. It was not too long ago a woman at church stopped a mass killing at the church because she was armed with a gun.  A criminal who wants to bring a gun into a park forest  will get that gun into the park one way or another if he really wants to. Please allow our law-abiding concealed permit carriers to be able to help in such  situations and protect us if needed. This is their right. Don't  tell me there are enough park rangers all over our forests to protect us. Not possible. It seems like every other month something like this is happening and I would like to know that maybe somebody ( a concealed permit carrier) could save lives in such a situation.

Thank You,

Stephen
