I completely disagree. I think that as an employer/property owner you should be able to say "you can't carry a gun on my property or I'll fire you". However, my car is not your property. I don't think that a parking lot is something that should be covered by any corporate policy. My company restricts carring firearms AND restricts leaving them in the car, suggesting that I should leave my gun at home. F*** that. I park at a different company's lot and walk to work. I shouldn't have to do that. Whether I carry a gun away from work is none of my employers' concern, and whether I have one in my car is also none of their concern. I'll grant them that whether I am carrying one at work is something that they can restrict, but my car is my property, and you don't have rights over it, just because it's in your lot.

To allow workers to have weapons in their cars? The laws that are getting passed in FL and the NRA was pushing in GA - where your employer would be required to allow you to store your firearm in your vehicle on company property.
I personally believe it violates the property rights as an owner of a business and to me, private property rights are JUST AS IMPORTANT as the right to bear arms, if not more. Why do you need the right to bear arms if you aren't entitled to your property for one (And your body is also your property as far as I am concerned).
You have no right to work at a business, you can find a new job if your employers rules don't suit you.
