A.A property owner, tenant, public or private employer or business entity shall not prohibit a person who lawfully possesses a firearm from transporting or storing the firearm in a locked and privately owned motor vehicle that is parked in a parking lot, parking garage or other area designated for parking motor vehicles.
B.A property owner, tenant, public or private employer or business entity or the agent or employee of a property owner, tenant, public or private employer or business entity is not liable in a civil action for damages resulting from or arising out of an act involving a firearm that is transported or stored pursuant to this section in a locked, privately owned motor vehicle that is parked in a parking lot, parking garage or other area designated for parking motor vehicles.
C.This section does not prohibit an employer or a business entity from adopting a policy that specifies that a firearm stored in a locked and privately owned motor vehicle that is parked on property that is owned or controlled by the employer or business entity remain out of plain view of the public.
D.This section does not apply if:
1.The possession of the firearm is prohibited by federal or state law.
2.The motor vehicle is owned or leased by a public or private employer or business entity and is used by an employee in the course of the employment, unless the employee is required to store or transport a firearm in the official discharge of the employee's duties or if the public or private employer or business entity consents to the transportation or storage of the firearm.
That is the bill in a nutshell. Now with "C"...does that mean the employer can have you park on the 10th floor to keep you out of sight? Not sure I understand that part.
My other thought on this...Does this mean shopping malls etc can't prohibit you from bringing your handgun anymore..I see signs in some places that state if you are parking your vehicle here you cannot have a handgun. If that's the case, I can't wait to tell these businesses to take down there B.S.
