Virginia Governor Bans Open Carry at State Government Buildings
The Governor established a joint task force to prosecute gun crimes and enforce existing ones. He also made an executive order banning open carry at State Government Buildings. Of course Gabby Giffords approved of this nonsense and she used the "common sense" and "gun safety" propaganda again.

"Banning Firearms in State Government Buildings
We must take every precaution to protect our citizens and state employees from gun violence. We cannot wait until a tragedy occurs to decide to address it. Prevention requires us to address areas of concern before they are realized. Accordingly, I hereby declare that it is the policy of the Commonwealth that open carry of firearms shall be prohibited in offices occupied by executive branch agencies, unless held by law enforcement, authorized security, or military personnel authorized to carry firearms in accordance with their duties. Within 30 days of the date of this Executive Order, the Director of the Department of General Services (DGS) shall issue guidance prohibiting carrying weapons openly in offices occupied by executive branch agencies.."
