Like to list the dozens?hundreds? of government rules and laws about what you cannot or can do or have on your private property ?
You can't fire someone for a number of personal reasons as long as they are doing the work they are being payed to perform. No where was there mention of threats or worker problems. Besides, maybe if employers didn't crap on their workers with strait-jacket policies there would be way fewer disgruntled workers !
The other poster's example of firing a person who loudly complained and criticized an employer in the parking lot falls because that could be constued as an example of abuse whereas the guns were not flaunted or misused according to the story.

Of course the government violates private property rights in many ways. That's my whole point. This law is another example of it.

I'm as big a Second Amendment supporter as anyone, but private property rights have to take precedence.

Wrong. It's an at will state, meaning you can fire someone for any reason whatsoever. The only way you can run afoul would be to get in trouble with the feds via the equal opportunity route, and last time I checked that was limited to a select few criteria such as race.
