First of all, its called "CONCEALED" permit for a reason. Its usually "CONCEALED". Which means the holder of the permit probably ain't gonna be announcing whether he/she does/does not have a weapon.
All for your right as an employer to hire or fire whoever you desire for whatever ever reason.
Kinda disingenuous to me, though, that opponents of the firearms in the cars claim "property rights" violations. They should be able to do as they wish on their property. Funny, don't seem to remember many "property rights" claims when the GOVERNMENT mandated no smoking in your building. It would seem that most restrictions placed on business owners could be "Property rights" violations. But the gun thing, Oh my!
As for those claiming its a "safety issue", heres a few examples pulled randomly of cases where the shooter did go home first. So much for the cooling down theory.

Isn't the term "disgruntled" a little out of place? I mean, really, does a happy worker shoot his boss and/or co-workers?
I still have the same question I've asked in other "guns are evil" threads. Anyone have any REAL statistics on how many gun crimes have been committed by legal, licensed CC permit holders?
