Are you aware that most of the monies raised for wildlife come from hunting 
and fishing
licenses? That no animal hunted legally via a license has ever been driven 
into extinction?
That monies raised from licensed hunting has repopulated elk, deer, buffalo 
and turkey
throughout these United States? That hunters have spent more time and money 
rebuilding
animal habitat than any one else? That people who hunt spend as much time or 
more than
we do in the outdoors? That I hunt and use guns as just another excuse to 
spend time
outdoors with my kids? If you eat meat you should have to at least one time 
gut your
dinner. What this has to do with guns in National Parks I couldn't tell you, 
but it did give
me a chance to go on a rant. :) Robert
