Adamantly opposed to the emergency and/or permanent ban on CHP in State buildings.
 

I am adamantly opposed to the emergency and/or permanent ban on CHP in VA (or any other) State building.  This is a political farce using an "emergency" ban to move toward a permanent ban.  Exactly what "emergency" took place that Gov. M thought this was necessary?  Could it possibly be that he is one more politician that thinks we the people should be disarmed while he walks around with armed security? Could it be that he was brought to our great Commonwealth to help the political anti-gunners, through Bloomberg, forward their agenda?  Do we not have the right to protect ourselves?  Or do we have to be amongst the political elite to deserve that priviledge?  Does the great Constituiton of these United States not already grant that right/priviledge to me; does that same Constituition not prohibit this ban?  Gun-free zones are the least safe place to be.  Look at Chicago - very strict gun laws yet one of the highest gun crime areas in the country.  Explain how creating gun free zones helped Chicago?  Vehemently, adamantly, passionately opposed to the revocation of my Constitutional rights, not just the right to own and carry, but to the revocation, whether "emergency", "politically correct", or otherwise, of all Constitutional rights.
