If and when “white supremacists” descend on San Francisco’s Crissy Field later this month, they can do so with concealed handguns.

That’s thanks to a 2010 federal firearms law that allows guns in national parks, when applicable under state and local laws, which local officials verified on background.

That’s especially pertinent as local officials came together Tuesday to take a stand against a planned Patriot Prayer rally on Aug. 26 at Crissy Field and cited fears of violence.

“Concealed weapons are always a concern,” Supervisor Mark Farrell told me in a written statement. “It’s one of the many reasons why I called on the National Park Service today to detail an appropriate and considerable plan to keep everyone safe.”
