[Posted by toldyouso12: Hmmm what is asinine about this? Imagine Stone being accosted while walking to through the parking lot to get to her car (where the gun is locked up) So she is going to say "Just let me get to my car first, Mr. rapist?" LOL]

If you had half a brain you would realize what this is about. If your workplace will not allow you to keep your gun in your car at work, they are effectively denying your right to carry to and from work. If you work 5 days a week, that''s 5 days you cannot carry your gun.

Suppose you need to go shopping AFTER work? Or run errands? Pick up your kids? Take your pick. If companies don''t want gun IN there workplaces that''s fine with me, but OUTside the building should be fine, especially secured in your PERSONAL vehicle.

The guy from Brandsmart was an idiot. Patrons of the store can carry guns IN his store, but his employees can''t keep guns in their CARS. What sense does that make?

I am not religious, but I''m not an atheist. I believe there is a supreme being. I don''t beleive the fairy tales that man has made up to explain him.

For you religious folks, which I am one thank God. God expects us to use common sense and defend ourselves. Even God has his army of angels.

More blood has been spilled in the name of religion than anything else . Way way before and after Hitler and Stalin.

I know I can''''t recall anywhere in the bible where it says to be a victim, and not to defend ones self, or ones family either.

Read the NT, Jesus repeatedly tells people that if they are hurt or struck by another, they should not fight back, but turn the other cheek. When asked what to do if both cheeks were slapped, Jesus said to forgive 70 X 7 (in other words, do nothing and forgive to the end) he also said to show kindness to your enemies for kindness was like heaping coals on their heads--then in the OT, God says--he will have wrath for anyone who is vengeful--He says vengeance is His right, and only His right--not ours.

donnie10411 - It might be the very person that is allowed to carry at work that saves your very life from a nut job off the street that just dosen''t like the company you work for and you were just the first one he saw and attacked. The employee carrying could stop them first we hope before anyone get hurt. If no one has a weapon, maybe one of your co-workers could throw a phone at the nut job.

Man has lost it ? Why, thru Religion, pushing men to kill others if they fail to do as they are told in the name of a Fairy Tale , from a long time ago.Man now is arming themselves to deal with crazed humans who think they are more Holy. The wild west could have not Dreamed up whats going on today.Fools blowing themselves up with women and children, babies Grandparents in the Name of Allah ? Brainwashed Robots we need the target practice and welcome it.Pack a piece, prepare to slain the wicked.

Save your atheistic prosletyzing. Some of the biggest killers known were not religious: Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Idi Amin...many things may be done using religion as a smoke screen but behind every single act is "greed" for money and power. ...which is not specific to religion.

Why would you want to take your gun to work? "Give me a promotion or else"?

Why would anyone want to keep the gun locked in their cars? "Wait a minute, while I go and get my gun?" LOL

No one can stop a determined individual from going to their car or home for a weapon and coming back to commit a crime. What we can do is be prepared for that confratation should it happen. The nut will not care wheather it is a gun, knife, bow, bomb or car. they don''t care, they just want to get even anyway they can, as fast as they can. They could drive through the postoffice, do we ban all cars?????

Lock and Load!!!

This should make pay raises more easy to come by. You will now be graded on preficiency, production, and AIM.

And if the employee fails to get the raise or worse, gets the boot--he can always go out to his car, get his gun and settle it all in a hail of bullets. LOL
