firearms anywhere, anytime.

Thanks,  Robyn

The Bush administration has proposed a rule that would allow visitors to carry

loaded firearms in every one of our national parks, posing a grave threat to our

nation's wildlife.

 

Please go to

http://www.savebiog ems.org/yellowst one/takeaction

today and tell the Bush administration to reject this outrageous proposal.

 

Under pressure from a group of senators, the Bush administration would weaken

the current rule, which requires that firearms be unloaded and stored to prevent

their ready use. This long-standing precaution has been crucial in controlling

poachers within our nation's national parks and protecting certain species from

extinction -- in particular, Yellowstone' s grizzly bear population.

 

If passed, the new rule would likely increase poaching of imperiled species,

such as Greater Yellowstone' s grizzlies and wolves. In Wyoming -- where state

officials have already begun gunning down wolves -- the wolf population is

especially vulnerable.

 

Allowing visitors to carry loaded weapons would also pose a safety risk to

millions of Americans who use our national parks every year.

 

Our national parks should be a safe haven for all wildlife and citizens. Please

go to

http://www.savebiog ems.org/yellowst one/takeaction 

right away and tell the Bush administration you won't stand for loaded guns in

our national parks!

 

Thank you again for taking action on behalf of our parks and wildlife.

I'm all for CCWs (permit to carry concealed weapon), but I strongly

believe permits should only be issued to people who can demonstrate

competent shooting ability. I base that on my own inability to hit a

paper plate from 10' with a 9mm Beretta; I can see no justification

for allowing dangerously incompetent shooters to carry firearms in

public. I also agree with CCW laws that prohibit carrying in

establishments that sell alcohol.
