The Senate on Tuesday backed an amendment that would allow people to carry loaded guns in national parks and wildlife refuges. After spending this past weekend in Zion National Park, it shocks and saddens me to think that twenty-seven Democrats joined 39 Republicans and one independent supported an amendment, which was attached to a bill imposing restrictions on credit card companies. The amendment was approved 67-29.
