Cheyenne Mayor Marian Orr says that while she is a big supporter of the Second Amendment, she opposes a bill in the legislature that would repeal gun-free zones in public buildings across the state.
The mayor says her opposition to Senate File 75 is not about being against the ability of state residents to carry guns in public buildings, in fact, she says she would be fine with allowing people to carry firearms into Cheyenne City Council Chambers. |

| Subdivisions of the state must yield to the state. That's just the way it is. The 10th Amendment reserves powers to the states, not to their subdivisions. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
