Scouts to no longer bring penknives on camping trips [UK]
Posted by admin / Under Camping Gear
New advice published in Scouting, the official in-house magazine, says neither Scouts nor their parents should bring penknives to camp except in "specific" situations. Scouts have traditionally been taught how to use knives correctly, using them on camping trips to cut firewood or carve tools. At one point Scouts were allowed to carry a sheath knife on their belt as part of their uniform although this is no longer the case. In recent years the Scout Association guidance has been that parents should carry knives to camps or meetings. Dave Budd, a knife-maker who runs courses training Scouts about the...

Shooting looks like self-defense(WA)

A federal warning to beware of campers in national forests who eat tortillas, drink Tecate beer and play Spanish music because they could be armed marijuana growers is racial profiling, an advocate for Hispanic rights said Friday. The warnings were issued Wednesday by the U.S. Forest Service, which is investigating how much marijuana is being illegally cultivated in Colorado's national forests following the recent discovery of more than 14,000 plants in Pike National Forest. "That's discriminatory, and it puts Hispanic campers in danger," said Polly Baca, co-chairwoman of the Colorado Latino Forum. A spokesman for the U.S. Forest Service had...

Libyan Leader Looks to Pitch a Tent in Jersey (Libyan President Moammar Khadafy wants to camp in NJ)
Posted by admin / Under Camping Gear
This is one political tent virtually no one wants to be under. Libyan President Moammar Khadafy will pitch a massive tent in the middle of a quiet New Jersey suburb when he is in town for a UN General Assembly meeting next month, according to The New York Post. The terrorist-harboring leader -- recently photographed warmly embracing newly released Pan Am Flight 103 bomber Abdel Basset Ali al-Megrahi -- typically travels with an air-conditioned tent and plans to set up camp on the front lawn of an Englewood, N.J., home that is owned by the Libyan Mission to the UN,...
