The Postal Service also can't claim that firearms are PROHIBITED on postal property. Postal Inspectors and postal police carry them. Firearms are ordinarily brought along with the delivery of accountable paper.

What is being demanded here by the DOJ attorneys arguing the case is that ONLY RURAL NCDBU customers are to be prohibited the protection of firearms at postal installations.

I think the standard violates the 14th Amendment.
