I strongly oppose this regulation
 

I strongly oppose this regulation. This executive ban on legally carried firearms does not address any issues.  Criminals - the ones that commit violent crimes - are not likely to leave their weapons at home because the ABC store has a "No Guns Allowed" sign.  Mass murderes also tend to ignore these regulations.  The only people that follow them are the citizens that have already been found to be trustworthy enough to carry concealed weapons.

In addition, the legistlature has already addressed this issue, and the Governor has ignored their action.  These comments are also overwhelmingly against this gun ban.  Please remember that the government is by, for and of the people.

Thank you.
