Gentlemen,

I write in support of law abiding citizens who wish to carry their concealed firearm in state parks.  This will not lead to an increase in crime.  People who hold CCW's are decent citizens who take their self protection seriously.  Criminals ignore laws anyway, and with or without this new law, they carry weapons anywhere they wish, legal or not.  I am tired of the ignorant gun control advocates who think that denying my right will somehow make everyone safe.  It is their choice to live a defenseless lifestyle, and they should allow me the same choice to carry a means to defend myself.  Thank you.
