McD: Don’t pack heat in national parks (McDermott - D Washington) [View all] shadowrider Feb 2012 OP

Got It fightthegoodfightnow Feb 2012 #1

Why do you want it to be illegal to carry a defensive tool? PavePusher Feb 2012 #25

I Do? fightthegoodfightnow Feb 2012 #56

Interesting question, "how many guns does one individual need for 'defensiveness'?... spin Feb 2012 #71

Well fightthegoodfightnow Feb 2012 #72

No, I will not criticize your views... spin Feb 2012 #73

Thank You fightthegoodfightnow Feb 2012 #74

Thank you. (n/t) spin Feb 2012 #77

lawyers are pretty good at discerning prejudicial tendencies Tuesday Afternoon Feb 2012 #85

Personally, I felt a lot safer in the National Parks Live and Learn Feb 2012 #2

If they are law abiding citizens gejohnston Feb 2012 #4

Why are you concerned about fellow campers who are law abiding citizens and do carry? PavePusher Feb 2012 #26

Welcome to DU! ellisonz Feb 2012 #45

The guy that shot the ranger was seemingly a law-abiding citizen - until he shot the ranger. baldguy Feb 2012 #3

I give up. Exactly how do you prevent a criminal from getting a gun? shadowrider Feb 2012 #5

(crickets) BiggJawn Feb 2012 #6

Agreed shadowrider Feb 2012 #8

Pretty speedy crickets in your neck of the woods! petronius Feb 2012 #9

I know I know shadowrider Feb 2012 #10

Yes. BiggJawn Feb 2012 #14

One way is to close/restrict the spigot. You could help do that by buying less guns and Hoyt Feb 2012 #33

Once again, we hear from the General Jack D. Ripper school of gun control. friendly_iconoclast Feb 2012 #47

Kinda like flagging a certain number of senseless posts by an anti-gun zealot? rl6214 Feb 2012 #69

Your interlocutor seems to have left the building. friendly_iconoclast Feb 2012 #52

"The guy that shot the ranger was seemingly a law-abiding citizen - until he shot the ranger." PavePusher Feb 2012 #22

Seems like nobody wants to investigate the bad guy shadowrider Feb 2012 #28

Did you even bother to read the OP? baldguy Feb 2012 #60

That was sarcasm. AtheistCrusader Feb 2012 #78

Oh really? Straw Man Feb 2012 #29

And another who didn't bother to read the OP. baldguy Feb 2012 #61

I read the OP. Straw Man Feb 2012 #65

You seem short on facts. ManiacJoe Feb 2012 #59

And another. baldguy Feb 2012 #62

I think he forgot the smilie gejohnston Feb 2012 #63

Indeed. He failed to make allowances for the sarcasm-impaired... friendly_iconoclast Feb 2012 #67

...example of you not understanding the OP? AtheistCrusader Feb 2012 #88

Actually he was on the run from the authorities. Muskypundit Feb 2012 #70

But he was known to be unstable and dangerous. Atypical Liberal Feb 2012 #89

It's true...this guy would have disarmed before running the checkpoint... ileus Feb 2012 #7

gun grabbers and safeinOhio Feb 2012 #11

let's give the gun worshippers their own stat. how about alabama nt msongs Feb 2012 #12

nice. Tuesday Afternoon Feb 2012 #84

yes, and the flamebait posted in this group alone is enough to keep DU's homefires burning Tuesday Afternoon Feb 2012 #83

the death merchants are trying to turn the US into Afghanistan. bowens43 Feb 2012 #13

Fixed that for you. discntnt_irny_srcsm Feb 2012 #16

One of my favorite sayings.. shadowrider Feb 2012 #17

Thats what the gun grabbers want. A nation of subjects, living in fear of the goverment. oneshooter Feb 2012 #27

A nation of subjects discntnt_irny_srcsm Feb 2012 #30

If that is how you feel, why not leave your guns at home until the revolution? Hoyt Feb 2012 #34

Why chance being a victim between now and "then"??? ileus Feb 2012 #35

Lord, you are one paranoid individual. Hoyt Feb 2012 #37

Lord, you are one trusting individual. ileus Feb 2012 #40

Much rather be trusting of -- seemingly law abiding citizens -- that paranoid and suspicious. Hoyt Feb 2012 #44

Me too. discntnt_irny_srcsm Feb 2012 #46

"Much rather be trusting of -- seemingly law abiding citizens." Unless they have a CCW permit... friendly_iconoclast Feb 2012 #49

That's pretty much it. Would never turn my back on anyone that bent on packing in our society. Hoyt Feb 2012 #57

Looks like you'll be staying in the basement 24/7, then - CCW is legal in your state. friendly_iconoclast Feb 2012 #66

it's not paranoid or suspicion...it's being aware. ileus Feb 2012 #54

No. Next question? shadowrider Feb 2012 #36

As I thought, just another BS argument to rationalize your need to strap gun on before venturing out Hoyt Feb 2012 #38

No is a BS argument? shadowrider Feb 2012 #39

As I always say safety first; victim later. ileus Feb 2012 #41

it was a non issue before Reagan banned it gejohnston Feb 2012 #18

"A COUNTRY CANNOT BE FREE WITH AN ARMED CITIZENRY " - That's F'n priceless DonP Feb 2012 #19

I'm *definitely* bookmarking this thread, if only for that statement. friendly_iconoclast Feb 2012 #51

So is it your opinion that the converse is true? krispos42 Feb 2012 #64

Wow, I never knew Bashar al-Assad was a DUer. friendly_iconoclast Feb 2012 #68

"Ican't think of more ridiculous or foolish then allowing guns in parks. " Callisto32 Feb 2012 #75

The implications are... discntnt_irny_srcsm Feb 2012 #15

And with firearms in the hands of travelers who shoot anything they fear, Live and Learn Feb 2012 #20

history is usually a good guide gejohnston Feb 2012 #21

Not sure what 1981 has to do with it Live and Learn Feb 2012 #43

The 1930s regulations were more about gejohnston Feb 2012 #53

Stats, please. n/t PavePusher Feb 2012 #24

Stats??? discntnt_irny_srcsm Feb 2012 #32

Didn't really need stats for my "guess" Live and Learn Feb 2012 #42

Nothing about national parks in that. Keep trying. friendly_iconoclast Feb 2012 #48

your bullet-in gejohnston Feb 2012 #55

Nice dodge. discntnt_irny_srcsm Feb 2012 #31

Unfortunately for your "reasoning" Callisto32 Feb 2012 #76

Surely you can show that happening in the last year. AtheistCrusader Feb 2012 #80

Typical Old Codger Feb 2012 #50

Some days I am embarrassed to admit McD is my rep. ManiacJoe Feb 2012 #58

No problem, we can shoot that law down. AtheistCrusader Feb 2012 #79

So... discntnt_irny_srcsm Feb 2012 #81

If they try to eat me, you bet. AtheistCrusader Feb 2012 #82
