I support this legislation but open carry should also be legal as elsewhere in Virginia
 

I support the proposed regulation, but it should also include lawful open carry.  When the current
Governor, Bob McDonnell, was the Attorney General, he published an opinion that State Parks and other such state agencies did not have the power to ban openly carried handguns.  I agree and want open carry to be legal in State Forests as it is in the rest of Virginia.
