I smiled a little as I carried at Devil's Tower (National Park) last summer. I was thinking about how much of an upstanding citizen I was there with a gun on my hip and what a criminal I would be if I walked the shore of Joe Pool lake with the same handgun and for no valid reason. Such is our Federal government.
If you were at Devils Tower you were close to Little Big Horn Battlefield. Quite by accident, we got there in time to hear this particular Ranger's outstanding presentation of events leading up to and the battle itself. A presentation that kept some four dozen adults spellbound for 45 minutes prior to touring the site. Custer was diddled from the start.

Yes we carried on our persons in the park but NOT in the building...to get back on the topic. :mrgreen:

Or am I reading the order with my own prejudices?

My question, since this is in Federal Court, that means the injunction applies nation wide, right?

How long would it take for the order to filter down to the individual ACoE offices?

I would like to think that you're right:

1. Federal is federal and USACE lands are federal,
2. Hunting is allowed (in season) on USACE lands; and,
2. There is precedent with the NP park (federal lands) ruling on CC.

Now, we wait and see what we see, eh?
