Shit I'd certainly feel safer in a National Park knowing that anyone I see might be carrying a concealed weapon
what the fucking fuck
― ledge, Thursday, 11 December 2008 23:37 (sixteen years ago)
One of the orginal reasons they banned loaded weapons in Nat'l Parks (unlike Nat's Forests where it's permitted) is that hunting is strictly prohibited and they didn't want any jackasses poaching endangered species.

No, they're just the kind of cretins who feel 'naked' when they're not packing heat.
― a serviceable substitute for wit (Michael White), Thursday, 11 December 2008 23:54 (sixteen years ago)
I mean I can see the argument for concealed carry in an urban situation. I don't buy it, but I can see it. In a national park though, those hotbeds of crime and violence, sure, whatever, you batshit rightwing loon.
and yeah the literal depiction of the 'exposed' metaphor in the cartoon is totally confusing and dumb.
― ledge, Thursday, 11 December 2008 23:54 (sixteen years ago)
Anyone remember a parody piece written after Virginia Tech, imagining what would happen if all students could 'pack heat'?
― ledge, Thursday, 11 December 2008 23:57 (sixteen years ago)
I believe, under the old law, you could bring your weapon into the park but it had to remain broken down or locked or something and the ammo had to be stored separately or something. I mean, an outright ban would be an undue burden of people traveling thousands of miles, who want to get in alittle , legal hunting along the way or whatnot, but concealed weapons in nat'l parks is pretty fucked up.
― a serviceable substitute for wit (Michael White), Thursday, 11 December 2008 23:58 (sixteen years ago)
can someone please explain why they make such a distinction between weapons and concealed weapons?
― koogs, Friday, 12 December 2008 09:25 (sixteen years ago)
those lisa benson drawings as well, are you sure they are rightwing batshit cartoons becuase i've been reading them the other way entirely. eg that it's a crying shame that public education doesn't afford people any choices. (ok, the others, i can't really explain those)
― koogs, Friday, 12 December 2008 09:28 (sixteen years ago)
Probably because hunting is boring but concealed weapons mean that hopefully someday your fantasy of killing a kid who mugs you or breaks into your house can come true.

how is that a "point"? the money you pay in taxes originally belonged to someone else before you traded your labor for it, and by paying taxes you're trading it for labor and services done by the government. it's no more a fiction than "taxpayer money" or "corporate money" or anything else
