Things like that don't happen every day in the U.S. Forest Service.
it’s been legal since Feb 2010 to carry a loaded firearm in a national park if you have a permit to do so. Does anyone believe that a law abiding citizen was ever any worry in the first place? Forbid guns in the Parks, will not the criminals still do whatever damage they choose? I wouldn’t want to go hiking without my pistol. Just dumb not to be able to protect yourself from whatever and whoever.
Wow! Now I know what was happening today. My hubby and I live on the road to Mt. Rainier in Graham. We went to a friends house today to watch the Hawks game, etc., and while we were on our way, there were BUNCHES of sherrif SUV’s flying down the road toward Mt. Rainier. Stopped to get gas near the Pierce County Sheriffs office on Meridian in Puyallup, and a couple MORE SUV’s came flying out of there. One looked like a well equipped Hummer! Wondered what the heck was going on. Now I know.
