Gun-friendly bill breezes through House
What does everyone think, a step in the right direction, or potentially giving someone a gun so they can shoot up a work place after having a bad day.
My thoughts are that it might result in higher workplace shootings, but would also lower the deaths as people could defend themselves after the threat is presented.
I also think that the type of person that is more proabable to commit a workplace shooting would pay no attention to a law that prohibits him from carrying a gun in his car while he is at work.

You do understand, don't you, that your last paragraph kind of invalidates the first part of your second paragraph, don't you? If someone is the kind to shoot up a workplace, they surely aren't going to be bothered by workplace rules against doing so!!!
the second paragraph doesnt invalidate the first.
with a higher percentage of guns being brought to work it is only reasonable to assume there would be an increase in work place shootings, or shootings to and from work.

I dont like the poll choices either... i think its a step in the right direction, not a perfect law, but maybe in a few years we can pass another one allowing the gun into the work place.... baby steps here guys, baby steps.
I think an employer should have the right to prohibit firearms in their workplace if they wish. I don't think we should be allowed to override their property rights any more than they should be able to override ours by trying to control what we can and can't have in our cars.
However, I do think the law should make clear that employers that choose to disarm citizens are liable for any victims of violent crime in their workplace, since by doing so the employer has chosen to assume responsibility for their safety.

would this be what they call, manufacturing your own facts?
Poll Fail.
With a higher percentage of people bringing their lunch into work it is only
reasonable to assume there would be an increase in work place chokings,
or chokings before or after work.
...Bingo!! Rep prize for that one(even though it won't let me)..On the other hand, you'll pardon me if I don't hold my breath while we try to get that passed.I do think the law should make clear that employers that choose to disarm citizens are liable for any victims of violent crime in their workplace, since by doing so the employer has chosen to assume responsibility for their safety.
