The concealed-weapon permit compromise was but a bump. This is a victory.

Its not perfect. One shouldn't have to choose between their livelihood and their lawful right of self defense. No employer should have to fear their workers who carry concealed to work. If someone is intent on breaking the law, whether they have a gun or not isn't going to be an issue when they do so.

[Don Corleone]

Siding with the influential gun lobby, ...

They still have to put their little spin on it don't they? To these hacks the Constitution and its Bill of Rights mean less than nothing .. until someone comes to Gore their Ox. (Puns intended)

[PeterFinn]

Heck yeah, this is a victory!

[Lord_Calvinus]

Will your Guv sign it?

[lesser_satan]

I think they got it wrong. While I've always believed strongly in the Second Amendment, it's the employers' property and their decision on whether or not to allow firearms on their premises.

That said, any employer who would object to an employee having a gun is a moron.

[Soliton]

since when can a company policy trump a constitutional right?

[aberaussie]

Does anyone know if they kept the exceptions?

[moonman]

It is somewhat of a victory. Concealed-weapon permits should be unconstitutional for anyone not judged insane or having a felony record. It is strictly a tax and government registration to claim a 2nd Amendment right ploy.
