I strongly oppose the proposed gun ban.
Virtually all mass shootings happen in gun-free zones. The proposed regulation will needlessly endanger public officials and bona fide visitors.
It is a well-known fact that licensed concealed gun carriers are the most law-abiding citizens in the nation -- their offense rate is even lower than police officers! Therefore, those in State Executive offices and buildings have nothing to fear from licensed concealed gun carriers, and the proposed regulation is useless since criminals will ignore it anyway.
