OPPOSE THE GUN BAN REGULATION
 

I oppose the governor's temporaryand/or permanent gun ban in state agencies.  This is a matter for the legislature to decide.  There is no cause, reason or precedent of murder and mayhem in any state agency to initiate such a policy.  Gun free zones endanger all of us.  I remember years ago when non-drinking armed citizens were allowed to eat in restaurants that served alcoholic beverages.  Most Democrats cried that Virginians would be 'slaughtered'.  There have been no shootings in restatuants by law abiding responsible people.  Responsible people act responsibly whether armed or not.
