not sure what the governors true agenda is, however i wish to register my disagreement with any implementation of any further restrictions on the rights RIGHTS of individuals to gun ownership, and enjoyment, specifically in my home / birth state of Virginia.
not every location has public safety officers present to "protect and serve" we should be allowed to responsibly and reasonably exercise our 2nd Ammendment right to bear arms.
terrorism is real, it is here, as has been violent crime - the right to defend ones self and possibly others should not be determined by parties with agendas that are contrary to that inherent right.
Disarming good citizens (who are the only ones likely to obey the prohibition) does not make them safer.
The Governor has no authority for this regulation. If the General Assembly wanted the Governor to have such power, they would have granted it to him explicitly, as is required constitutionally.
