Go at it gun blogger, spread the word.

There are two gun owners who VCDL is trying to get in touch with ASAP; both were arrested at a National Park and Philip Van Cleave can’t find their names or email addresses anywhere. He asked that I cross post this.

If you are one of them, or have otherwise had trouble at a National Park, please contact him at president@vcdl.org

One person was carrying on the Blue Ridge Parkway. His car had some kind of trouble. He fixed the problem and was getting back into the car when a Park Ranger pulled up behind him with his blue lights flashing.

The Ranger ran the person’s name through the computer as a matter of course, saw he had a concealed carry permit and asked if the person had a gun in the car.

The person answered truthfully that he had a gun in a fanny pack on the floorboard.

The officer said he couldn’t have the gun and wrote the person a ticket and let him go.

The other person, a Virginia resident, was in California at a National Park and, as I recall, notified a Park Ranger that he had a
handgun when asked. The officer confiscated the handgun and wrote the person a ticket.

If you are either of those two individuals OR if you have a similar story at a National Park and have not contacted me about it within the last two months, please do so ASAP by emailing president@vcdl.org.
