CONCEALED CARRY IN NATIONAL PARKS SUSPENDED

On Thursday, March 19, a federal district court in Washington, D.C. granted anti-gun plaintiffs preliminary injunction against implementation of the new rule allowing law-abiding citizens to defend themselves by carrying a legal concealed firearm in national parks and wildlife refuges. In Thursday's ruling, Federal District Court Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotell issued the preliminary injunction against the Department of the Interior rule that took effect on January 9, 2009.
