ok but isnt that vehicle AND it's contents still your private property?
Regardless of where it is located at?
That is kinda what I was getting at...
I guess it is one of the ever lasting battles of where do your rights end and mine begin?
I tend to look at it that it is your private property if you own it regardless of where it is residing. An analogy would be the same as I posted above about visiting a friend. If it is my property then how can someone tell me what I can and cant do in it? Not saying my analogy was completely accurate, however it does not require a stretch of the imagination to see the same logic, even if it is flawed, I guess that is what I was trying to point out.
Sorry guess I am just in one of those moods today.....
See this is where private property rights vs private property rights get sticky. My wife & I are in the same boat, both our employers forbid weapons on company property, employee vehicles specifically mentioned. Whether they have the right to search said vehicles is iffy, and we wouldn't face legal charges if something were discovered, but we could be fired.
A few states recently (Oklahoma comes to mind) passed laws that prohibit employers from prohibiting weapons in employee vehicles on company property, and also frees the company from any liability if the weapons were used nefariously.
