Rule on Banning Guns in Buildings Owned or Leased by the State
 

I support making the Rule on Banning Guns in Buildings Ownerd or Leased by the State a permanent rule.  Other than duly authorized personnel carrying a gun in the line of duty in such buildings, no one else should be allowed to carry a lethal weapon in these areas.  This rule should be made permanent and should be strictly enforced.  This rule does not violate an individual's right to own or carry a gun; it would restrict where that gun can be carried, and rightly so.  I, for one, do not trust the judgment or ability of anyone who sees fit to carry a gun into a state building unless it is their state-assigned job.  I urge you to ban such a practice.
