For the sake of amusement - how do you see this ban progressing? Given that

name one jurisdiction where such a ban has had serious political momentum?

Hi Ralph,

As I have already documented, starting with the state parks.

You crack me up, Tim. These are your examples of "serious political momentum"?

And they're trying to equate banning hunting in State Parks with
banning fishing? Well, there are good reasons for banning hunting in
State Parks, starting with not wanting the buildings accidentally
shot, the campers accidentally shot (or worse, scared by the sound and
running hysterically to the ranger station). Or even too many camping
hunters having guns in their vehicles around. It upsets the kind of
people who like to get back to nature in a citified genteel way.

My state sort of bans hunting in state parks. Until the deer
population gets too large. Then they run bow hunts and / or close
down the park for a week or two and bring in sharp shooters. It
permits it on much other state land, however.
