What you folks might not realize is that this doesn't only apply to Yellowstone, the Appalachian Trail, the Boundary Waters, Yosemite, and the like. There is a 72-mile strip of Federal National Park land, right through the middle of the Twin Cities.
The Mississippi National River and Recreation Area runs from Hastings up to Dayton. Every time you approach the river in the Cities (yes, even driving over a bridge) while packing, this matter affects you.
Quite frankly, I feel that neither solution, the current "no guns" rule nor the "state rule that you are in" is correct. While you are Federal land, there should be no restrictions whatsoever. No permits needed.

Well, 1A says "Congress shall make no law...." It's ridiculous when Federal law is even more restrictive than State Law.
Until 2003 I thought Minnesota's pro carry lobby were dreamers too.
<b>Our Conservatives seem to have forgotten gun freedom.</b> They are more interested in building fences,, teaching creationism and avoiding due process for military prisoners, and making fun of scientists.
All that energy could be put to good use right now talking about First Amendment rights. <b> And they might even pick up some votes this fall, which they kinda need......</b>
It's the votes that take precedence isn't it...
