    Default Guns in National Parks Poll

    Didn't see this posted yet, but saw a poll regarding carrying in National Parks along with an article on MSNBC.com and figured we could hit it up a little:

    http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25630796/

    Poll is about half-way down the first page.

    Voting in a opinion poll is good , but writting letters directly to the people that make the decision is much better. New Dead line is 8, 8,08 for public comments.

    Details of writting a letter is here, make your voice heard.......

    Yes, writing is better, public opinion polls don't really matter, and I did write a while ago, and would encourage others to do so (as you have been doing ).

    Just posting this up for people to see and read the article.

    46% outright support of concealed carry no matter what state law is, and an additional 18% support for state law to rule the day.
