Pizza Hut employee kills 2 in attempted robbery

Someone should know

It should be an interesting study to determine/compile the data of companies like this (delivery/cash handling) when some deny employees the right to arm themselves. I doubt the employers would cooperate, but i wonder what the data would show.

Do criminals target those companies they believe to be unarmed, or trained not to resist?

I believe in armed self defense, but i believe the employer should have the right to choose police. I just don't think anyone should choose to work for such companies that don't provide for the defense of the employees, as i suspect it really does invite violent criminals.

P.S., it shouln't be too hard to learn of their policy, just apply for a job. They would have to let you know then.

It should be made law that if any employer forbids his employees from their RIGHT TO self defense, the employer must have some type of STATE and or Home Land security certified armed guard. That is to include police in there that will protect his employees at all times. I know I will hear that no one is forcing you to work there, agreed but employees have the right to have a safe work environment. If they are denied their right to self defense than the employers owe their employees protection. At least a law forbidding an employer from firing an employee who uses a firearm in self defense like the pizza guys, considering their public no guns policy has endangered their employees because the employer refuse to do anything to protect their employees. Needless the say I would do the same as the delivery guy has done.
