Handguns in parks

I can think of a dozen people who would be alive today if they had not been shot with a handgun. We are the only so-called civilized country in the world where anyone — children, the mentally ill — can obtain a gun. Now it seems the government will allow handguns in our national parks (5/1, A-1, “End to parks gun ban moves ahead”).

When will this madness top? We must speak out and let our congressmen know this is not acceptable.
