The Virginia Governor's attempt to ban firearms- including licensed concealed carry permit holders- from public governmental offices is totally inappropriate and goes against common sense. Virginia's citizens have a duty and responsibility to remain armed and prepared to defend themselves and each other from attacks by terrorists and others who seek out "soft targets" where guns are banned. Also, the Governor has no legal right to do this.
