So the law/rule abiding employees are sitting ducks for a “mentally disturbed” armed x employee! Or whom ever....

Sigh, another GFZ; barring lawful self defense when most needed.

Thank you. I wonder if they let the security guard carry?

The FEDEX employee is probably a former WH aide that was activated to bring about more awareness on the war against guns.../s

I expect the MSM whom cares so deeply about the murders daily in Chicago and frequently asks the President about the carnage by criminals (/s), to ask Obama about today’s incident.

Because this is an airport location; it is clear it is a FEDEX Express location... FEDEX Express is NON- union. And so are the Ground and Home Delivery division.

Another exciting episode in the society the DemocRATS built. If you have a problem, solve it the way they do in the movies and on TV.

Problem will be worse because last week, Gov, Nathan Deal signed a bill that the BHO-voters in this state called the “guns everywhere” bill.
Now every criminal incident involving a firearm will be dumped in Deals lap, with a push toward punishing the law abiding.
Its always “punish the law abiding” when it comes to the 2nd Amendment.

Columbia law Review Article about Fedex and guns at work. Quote from the article:

Employers like FedEx and Volkswagen have fought the laws, arguing that, as employers, they have the right to maintain a safe and gun-free workplace.

Really safe for the demented killers, but for the regular employees, not so much.

Profound statement. I fully came to understand exactly that, this morning when I read the ugly tweets coming from liberals regarding the devastation from tornadoes in the Southern States.

Of course the “law-abiding” criminals always register their guns and obey all gun laws and the non-criminals are the real criminals. (in the upside down world of the anti-second amendment)
