    I've never quite understood the whole 'getting permission' thing to carry a firearm.

    Sorta like a high school senior rasing their hand in class to obtain permission from the instructor to make a head call.


    Just doesn't make sense.

    Hmm...the following article states that Senator Tom Coburn, Republican-Okla, was the one to insert the gun measure into the bill:

    Perhaps more digging is required to verify this.

    Soon as Bamster signs it, it is a done deal. It puts things back to the way Bush had it. ( a lefty woman judge took Bush's Executive Order down )

    Think of it this way... Since you already have RTBA and Heller, why should citizens give up their rights just because you have entered a Federal Park.

    Its a wonderful win for pro-gun activists and gun owners. However, we must be vigilant in our fight to achieve many more gun victories, which await our proud gun owning society!

    That's what anti-gun liberals and propagandized yet ignorant pro-gun folks would have you believe.
    READ THE 2nd AMENDMENT!!!
    tsk tsk

    The battle was already won by the founders. We are the buffons which allowed ourselves to be convinced by the likes of the NRA, that we had to "gain" something or "win" something! Wake up. This mindset is exactly how we "give it away", not keep it. Only ignorance allows something God-given, to be taken away by mere men.

    That is correct. I don't know what the OP is talking about or trying to prove but Coburn put that into the bill.

    It started way before Bush. Who deregulated Freddie Mac and Fannie May? Check the facts before you jump. Bush did alot to add to our present situation but it started before him.

    We are talking RIGHTS here and not seeking the gov's PERMISSION!

    Regarding Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac vs. the Bush Admin, I've seen articles such as this one surface over the last year. Apparently it wasn't a big issue back in 2003, but with the current economy, hindsight is what it is:

    And now, back to our regularly scheduled programming...
