i strongly oppose gun ban in state agency buildings
 

you are creating many more gun-free-zone targets around the state and inviting attacks. you are also making citizens unsafe as they travel to and from these building, many of which are in sketchy areas. you are also making your employees vulnerable to attack. not all agency buildings have armed security to protect them. the govenor, and his security detail, should not be exempt from this ban if it is made permenant.  let him put his life on the line if he believes in it so much.
