I am sorry to report that Spanky failed to appear for the intellectual dual he challenged me to on his blog in this string.
The undertaker was so disappointed.
But I shall generously excuse the Spankster this time, recognizing that even now he is still recovering from eating dust after being out-drawn by a gent named Jackson Landers.

Kudos are deserved for gunslinger Landers, a democratic pro-gun blogger with a keen mind, and interesting things to say about what to carry for bears. Would recommend a visit:

Finally, perhaps more germaine to this string, attached is an Opencarry press release regarding Webb’s attached letter, and his answers to the NRA questionnaire:

************************************
James Webb pledges to bring national park right to carry bill to floor vote!
************************************
Virginia gun owners have a signed pledge now from James Webb himself to federally mandate interstateacceptance of gun carry permits and to provide for the right to carry in National Parks.
See attached doc.

. . .
Ihave possessed a concealed-carry permit for many years, and shoot regularly. I have made no secret during this campaign of the fact that I carry. I support a national concealed carry permit.
I also will sponsor a bill in the United States Senate that repeals the National Park Gun Ban that disarms only law-abiding citizens in Interior Department/National Park Service across Virginia. And I intend to get it to the floor for a vote.
Please compare this background with that of my opponent. Individual Second Amendment Rights are ingrained into my Scots-Irish culture, and I stand where I stand.
. . .
Gun owners in Virginia are mulling their options carefully - after all, Senator Allen flip-flopped on the so called federal "Assault Weapons Ban" that limited production of cosmetically offensive single shot per trigger pull rifles for some years (the cosmetic ban has since sunset and is dead).
