My first reaction was that it sounded sort of reasonable.
But then I began to wonder: Are national parks so dangerous that people need to be allowed to carry guns in them?
Statistics don't even come close to holding up that theory.
So why would republican members of congress, and their NRA puppet masters, be pushing to allow people to pack pistols in their picnic baskets and backpacks?
Might it be an attempt to force Senators Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton to take an "anti-gun" vote before the election?
Gee, that'd be pretty irresponsible.
I mean playing the American public for dupes in order to score political points is certainly in the GOP playbook, but would they really stoop so low as to turn armed tourists loose in our national parks?
Actually, i think they would.
Never mind that there is not one iotas worth of justification for allowing pistol packing people into our national parks.
Never mind that national park rangers think the idea is totally ridiculous.
Yeah, at first i thought it sounded sort of reasonable.
But I was wrong.
Allowing guns in our national parks is a really stupid, irresponsible idea.
