Good point. So far, I haven't seen anything said mentioning veterans in regards to this event (except in this ETS thread). Our Denver Post article (probably cloned from some national news organization) included in the last paragraph that "loaded guns have been allowed in national parks since 2010", as if that has anything to do with this. So you're right - morons will draw idiotic conclusions to suit their agendas. Although I can't think of any groups that have an anti-veteran agenda (except for that stupid "church" that protests at military funerals).
