Loaded Firearms in National Parks - UPDATE

Alice Tripp, TSRA Legislative Director - Friday, May 22, 2009

Guns Barred From National Parks Until Feb. 2010~ UPDATE
The Interior Department says a new law allowing loaded guns in national parks and national wildlife refuges will not  take effect until next year, late in February.

President Obama signed the law on Friday as part of a measure creating new rules for the credit card industry, but the bill will not take effect until nine months after it was signed, neither will the language allowing firearms in National Parks.

Until then, rules adopted under the Reagan administration will remain in place.  These rules severely restrict guns in national parks, generally requiring guns to be locked or stored and unloaded.

Politically Correct

In keeping with the spirit of “political correctness” during these treacherous times we need to update our firearm vocabulary.

Assault Weapon is a misunderstood definition. Therefore, we should start referring to weapons like the AR-15 as a “Sports Utility Rifle.” This will soften the impact and make it more difficult to ban because it’s a sports rifle used for hunting and competition.
