Where is the problem this is supposed to solve? There have been no shootings in Virginia state agency buildings and the ban on concealed carry is even more unreasonable, as CHP holders (myself included) are the most law-abiding group of citizens in Va. (See this article and statistics: http://firearmtrainingstore.com/about-us/blog/1224-2/) Virginia revocation of permit holders is just 0.2 of permit holders who commit any crime.
Most mass-shootings occur in "gun free zones". This would make state buildings an open target. That doesn't make sense.
