The question I have is if this is the same Dennis that was a cop in Tucson as well as a runner and bike rider. I have not been back to Tucson in many many years and due to circumstances lost contact with Dennis. So if this is not the same Dennis have a great day but if it is can you contact me. You can follow the link to my blog and leave me some way to contact you.

Or drive around Valley Forge constantly? Going miles out of my way?"-Sebastian While I understand the proposition, I don't grant much weight to arguments about personal convenience, and I'm on your side on this. Hell it isn't convenient for bank robbers that all the money is behind the cages. I don't see the problem. Same with "Am I supposed to drive around?" The difference in the bank robber's plight and yours is that the money isn't his, the park is yours, and mine, and everyone else's. Our rights should apply there just as much as anywhere. You asked the wrong question from a subservient attitude, so don't be surprised when they say "YES, or go to jail". Instead of wondering or accepting what they will "give" you, how about demanding they "return" what they took. Otherwise you are agreeing that it was theirs all along. ” Am I to cross the street?

The route that we took was through Nevada, California, Oregon,Washington, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming (Yellowstone) and then back home through Colorado, New Mexico and back into Arizona. I carried my .45 with me during the whole trip. It was legal until I arrived at Yellowstone, but what was I supposed to do? Get rid of it at the gate? These laws are total nonsense. If I'm allowed to carry a firearm in downtown Tucson, surrounded by literally thousands of people, why am I not allowed to carry in Yellowstone where I am surrounded by thousands of Buffalos? These laws are just insane. Last year we went to Yellowstone.
