WY: VETO – Repeal of Gun Free Zones Killed by Wyoming Governor

Wyoming Governor Makes Unconstitutional Veto!
DISTURBING NEWS!
Despite passing both the Wyoming House and Senate by very wide margins, the GOA-backed bill to REPEAL GUN FREE ZONES has been vetoed by Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon!
HB0125 represented historic legislation that would have restored Second Amendment Rights to Wyoming citizens and made Wyoming a safer place.
GOA and our members worked very hard to get the Repeal of Gun Free Zones Bill through both chambers of the Wyoming Legislature.
A veto statement released by the Governor about HB0125, said in part that the Repeal, “erodes historic local control norms by giving sole authority to the Legislature to micromanage a Constitutionally protected right.”

This incoherent statement seems to imply that it is somehow “Constitutional” for local authorities to continue to infringe on your Constitutional Rights, and his statement further implies that the Legislature does not have the authority to stop this infringement.
Frankly, it is very hard to respect this nonsensical logic when considered within any context of the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution!
Dangerous public gun free zones remain in place in Wyoming where only criminals and madmen are armed.
