"What if a plumber or truck delivery guy or Coke machine guy has a gun with them?" says Howard Korn, campus police chief. "The law is still being worked through. There's been a lot of discussion about this."

You can't make this argument without having it spill over into "what if (fill in the blank) has a gun?" We have the right to bare arms so it stands to reason that lots of people do just that. The fanatical "what if" game leads ends with there being only one acceptable place to have a firearm - at home. I suppose we can launch an ad campaign urging criminals to make more house calls instead of recklessly committing crime wherever they may be when the mood strikes them.

Employees whose company has a policy against having firearms on the premises can easily get around that by simply leaving their guns in the glove boxes. They only risk being caught if they ever have to use the weapon to defend themselves in which case the point is made moot.

There was a post on FR recently citing how some large corp. had run gunpowder-sniffing dogs through its parking lot. Somehow they gained entrance to each car identified by the dogs, and ended-up firing a bunch of people violating their "no firearms on premises" rule.

The company offered no prior notice that it was going to do this.
