I'm sure you won't have that to worry about.
If you are truly that reactionary and have no regard for any consequences for hasty actions , you probably aren't (or won't be) a 'boss' with anything to say on the matter.
You could of course prohibit the possession of weapons on your property - well within your rights. But what would stop an employee from parking next door or across the street , or in the street?
You get wind that he legally carries , but , being an obedient employee , he leaves his gun locked in his car. Being knee-jerk , you fire him when you find this out.
Now , if he's nutty , which MUST be your assumption based on your irrational response to your new found info - and you just fired him because you don't want to worry about setting off a nut...well...
Now if on the other hand he's not at all nutty , which of course is the more likely case , and he's merely excersizing his rights, AND obeying your ill-informed limitations , you just handed him the keys to your company - your false bravado regarding lawsuits notwithstanding.
Either way - YOU LOSE.
How wise of you.
p.s. where can I send my resume'?
