I strongly oppose the action to ban lawfully concealed weapons from government offices and property.  Although I recognize the need to provide security in specific areas such as jails, public offices and spaces should not be made gun-free zones.  There is no issue to justify this action.  There has yet to be an emergency where a lawfully armed citizen attacked a Virginia government office.  

This action paried with the administration's earlier attempts to dismantle Virginia's CHP holders legal reciprocity with other states, clearly indicates an attempt to undermine the U.S. Constitutional rights of Virginia's citizenry.  Virginia's CHP holders are among the most responsible, law abiding and well vetted citizens.  Why would you target them for persecution?  

I respectfully ask that you not pass this regulation.
