I strongly oppose this
 

You have no right to dictate which law abiding citizens may carry arms for their defense or the defense of another. Most of the people you allow to carry firearms in these locations (security, law enforcement) have far less training on or with firearms than the many people like myself, Honorable discharged veteran, served in both Iraq and Afghanistan, have the Purple Heart and disabilities to prove it. I have used my fire arms in the defense of this nation time and time again. It is a slap in my face for you to attempt to allow only these low to moderately trained individuals to carry in these locations, but not myself. I would not hesitate to defend you again, with my life if need be, yet you would do this to me? I'm very disappointed in you...
