I’m sure that Senator Feinstein has probably never even been in a park, and if she were, she’s probably got bodyguards.
I liked this statement:
“The American public consistently rates our national parks at the top of federal government programs that work well.”
What does the federal government do to make a national park “work well”?
For example, Death Valley National Park is in California and Nevada. California prohibits loaded and accessible weapons in its state parks. Nevada does not. So which state law would apply at Death Valley National Park?
Boy Diane, that is really a hard one....Duh!
Californians are prohibited while Nevadans can carry, what is so difficult about that!
In fact Californians should probably be prohibited from LEAVING THE STATE just to protect the rest of from their
insanity
We gotta build a wikipedia entry for the term: B.S.
It would be a perfect example to provide a link to this Feinstein statement in the wiki description for B.S.
Someone ask the good Senator what she carries in her hideaway holster.
“It would create an incoherent, ineffective, and inconsistent patchwork of policies – “
That’s what a representative federal republic is all about. Local authority and local rule. As for ineffective, I doubt the senator could point to examples of ineffectiveness of local, state authority. Oh, wait, Katrina, that’s right, but that was you-know-who’s fault wunnit.
Going one on one or one on many against an angry moose or rabid wolf in bad health is not my idea of fun. I don't EXPECT it to happen, but it DOES happen, albeit rarely.
The experience is that unarmed victims ended up dead. There's nothing sensible about how that works at all.
How else can you shoot polar bears?
Simple solution: Let the Feds establish universal carry, concealed or otherwise throughout the land. They have never balked at over riding laws of the several states when they opposed the constitution.
A$$HAT!!
“Death Valley National Park is in California and Nevada. California prohibits loaded and accessible weapons in its state parks. Nevada does not. So which state law would apply at Death Valley National Park?”
Read the cite. The rule applies to those parks and portions thereof which are contained in the state boundary. If you carry, go to the Nevada side!
This dimbulb doesn’t realize that her objection to “...inconsistent patchwork of regulations and rules (para)...,” would be most simply alleviated by ENFORCING THE SECOND AMENDMENT AS IT STANDS WRITTEN!!! What part of “...the right of the people...shall not be infringed” don’t these bureau-critters not understand!?!?!?
Ruefully
No matter what you say you can’t convince Liberals that legally carried firearms are not a threat to the public. They are only a threat to the bad guys.
No, Di, decades of experience show that it is unnecessary. They're not stacking the bodies in the state parks where carry is allowed. These laws are a phony solution to a phony problem.
The number of such laws - the "assault weapons" ban is another - that date from the Reagan administration hearken back to a time when it was still felt that compromise with gun control zealots was possible. "Gun control we can live with" is the slogan I recall from a very brief period between the time when the AWB was introduced and the moment when the Clinton gang decided to demagogue it into a "stand up to the NRA" charade. The upshot wasn't "living with" anything, it was a succession of increasingly hysterical campaigns for more draconian solutions to the "problem" that were aimed at the people who weren't causing it.
Di-Fi has since given up her own concealed weapons permit, or so she states. It is revealing that she had one in the first place given how very difficult they are to obtain in California. Let her give up her armed bodyguards as well and live like the rest of us and maybe we can talk about when and where it's good to be armed.
Says the good Senator:
“It would create an incoherent, ineffective, and inconsistent patchwork of policies – across the country, and in some places within the same national parks.”
As opposed to what we have now?? LOL.
Where are the “Bravo Sierra!” and “Barf!!” alerts...?
Well, hopefully Nevada until Ca wakes up. Beware of any politician that doesn't think free people have a right to defend themselves.
GEEEEEZZ Diane- There are GPS units that will tell you if you are in Nevada or Kalifornia when you are in “Death Valley Park”. This park was created by you and Alan Cranston. It never was needed. It was all a sham. Why? Because there has been almost no money spent in policing the park, and it is huge and remote. Therefore, visitors should be able to carry weapons. Remember- Charlie Manson lived in Death Valley for years. They are still looking for bodies where he was at the Barker Ranch.
