hey guys how's everyone doing this fine evening? pretty good here. I am the new proud recipient of my Kentucky CCDW license as of this past Monday and i have a quick question about that KRS number.
Ok first here is the law incase anyone wondered. Copied straight from http://www.lrc.ky.gov/krs/237-00/106.PDF

(3) A firearm may be removed from the vehicle or handled in the case of self-defense, defense of another, defense of property, or as authorized by the owner, lessee, or occupant of the property.
(4) An employer that fires, disciplines, demotes, or otherwise punishes an employee who is lawfully exercising a right guaranteed by this section and who is engaging in conduct in compliance with this statute shall be liable in civil damages. An employee may seek and the court shall grant an injunction against an employer who is violating the provisions of this section when it is found that the employee is in compliance with the provisions of this section.
(5) The provisions of this section shall not apply to any real property:
(a) Owned, leased, or occupied by the United States government, upon which the possession or carrying of firearms is prohibited or controlled;
(b) Of a detention facility as defined in KRS 520.010; or

Ok here is my question. Ok i work at Toyota Motor Manufacturing in Georgetown. Now some of my co workers and my sister as well swares up and down that if they know i have my pistol in my car in my glove box or where ever that they can either search my car and if i dont comply with that they can fire me. Ok now according to this KRS they cannot. Whos correct here? from my understanding they cannot do such considering i am a Legal gun owner. See the confusion comes from the fact that the plant is a trade zone. But the signs are NOT posted at the parking lots Just at the gates that we have to badge in at. If i wanted to guess it would have to Post it at the parking lots and they would have to be fenced up correct? the lots are NOT fenced the only thing is they have little gates to the enterences of the lots that are down only when we are at work.
so someone please enlighten me on this? thanks a ton guys and gals...
