I've always found it to be clear that national parks do not allow firearms. Tough luck.

Maybe so, but the GW Parkway is one of the major commuter routes in the DC area. Most people don't realize that it's part of the National Park System until they get a speeding ticket and realize that they have to go to federal court.

Can't think of a reason that would be clear at all. There might be some bona-fide reasons for the fedgov to prohibit posession of guns in some places, but it's hard to imagine such conditions existing in your average national park. If there's a government regulation that serves no legitimate purpose, it needs fixed. A lot of states and cities do that too - I think it's a control issue.

But it is we who are supposed to be in control of the governments of this land, and what's clear is that we are not. We, collectively, have let that slip away over the past hundred years or so, bit by bit. That's another thing that needs fixed.

It's just not safe to be in a Federal Reservation.Seems to be the most anti-constitutional place you could be in.
