Even when firearms were not permitted, the unwritten rule in the national parks in Alaska was to carry. The rangers there insisted on it. Then again, that was Alaska where you are NOT at the top of the food chain.
"you are NOT at the top of the food chain"
THAT's what the dems proclaim about PRyno nevertrumpers.
Got that right... humans are *not* at the top of the food chain in Alaska. ;-)
We were in Alaska for a short time during the summer of 2017 attending a wedding. It was held at a small, VERY rustic lodge in deep woods, with a roaring brook and a beautiful blue pond of a color I'd never seen before. I was told the unusual blue color was because of the minerals from the glaciers.
The wedding and reception was outside... we were all out there for several hours, as the sun was up until past midnight I think.
An employee of the lodge acted as sort of a security guard, in jeans and a plaid shirt. And he was openly carrying - had his gun on his hip. We presumed it was in case any hungry bears made an appearance.
