I certainly hope this becomes law, as I live 30 miles from a national park, you've probably heard of it (The Grand Canyon). I work around and sometimes in the park, having to disarm everytime I cross some magic line is a pain.

"By not taking a stand to prevent this change, they have sacrificed public safety and national park resources in favor of the political agenda of the National Rifle Association," Pierno said, adding that the gun provision had no public hearing or other review.

In a statement after the vote, Pelosi called inclusion of the gun measure unfortunate and said it undermines the nation's gun safety laws.

The "gun provision" had excruciating review in its original form, as a rule change, even to the extent that the comment period was extended (dubiously legally) and nobody came up with any cogent, plausible argument against allowing government-certified "good guys" to carry firearms in National Parks. She's lieing, again.

Pelosi's allegation that the measure "undermines the nation's gun safety laws" is a hoot. To which national "gun safety" laws might she be referring?

If we limited anti-gunners to one-lie-a-month as they wish to limit gun purchase frequency, why, they'd be practically speechless.

Smitty, you got that right. Somebody more savvy than me will hopefully post the YouTube clip of Ms. McCarthy being grilled by a reporter asking her to define a "barrel shroud", a term she included in a gun ban bill. She stuttered and sputtered and eventually made a fool of herself by admitting that she had no idea of what gun features she proposed to ban, but whatever they may be, she's agin 'em...
