AOL shouldn't be prevented from banning guns on its property,

I'm sorry, but I do not understand how the sensibilities of a company has trump card priviledges over matters specifically enumerated in the Bill of Rights.

You have a right to keep and bare arms on your own property - not necessarily on someone else's property

Sorry but the protections in the Bill Of Rights only apply to governmental conduct. It doesn't prevent private companies or individuals from restricting them if they want. As Linda Ronstadt discovered this past week, there is no freedom of speech at the Aladdin - its not government censorship. Same with AOL barring employees from bringing a firearm to work - there is no government confiscation of guns issue involved here. Simple and straight. That's the way its always been in this country.
