    But Liz, don't you think a gun should be where it can provide yourself with the best protection ????

    A just don't think people should ever be in a situation where they
    need to carry personal protection 24/7. What kind of society is that?

    A business owner should be able to provide a safe working enviroment
    to it's employees. He should be able to ban guns in company parking
    areas.

    I believe the cliche is, "A polite society".

    A business owner should be able to provide a safe working enviroment
    to it's employees. He should be able to ban guns in company parking
    areas.
    Take a look back on work place shootings. Now think, who had the firearm? If you said only the shooter you are, in the majority of cases, correct. Making a gun free zone in the work place is creating a victim rich environment for disgruntled employees.

    Its the reality of the world in which we live. Key word here being REALITY.


    Business owner should be able to provide a safe working enviroment
    to it's employees. He should be able to ban guns in company parking
    areas.
    The first sentence is mutually exclusive of the second. LAWFULLY abiding gun owners in a work evnvironment IS a safe environment.


    The primary owner of our company used to think like you do. Then I shared with him some history and showed him some facts. Guess what? He is now a CCW permit holder and a lifetime NRA member.

    Facts trump fear EVERY time Liz. Thats why I encourage you to share WHY you think what you do.

    Taking the side of business instead of the individual is not a usual thing
    with me, but this proposed law is a bad idea no matter what or who
    proposed it. It clearly is a matter of gun rights vs property rights, as it
    wants to deny property owners from banning guns on their property.

    I'm very glad I am not the only one who agrees, this is a bad idea.
