Then there's the point that a disgruntled postal employee intent on killing people is not likely to be swayed by a federal regulation saying he can't have his gun there. But we must make sure people can't defend themselves on federal property! Perhaps the $50 fine will deter him!

Makes perfect sense to me!

Exactly.

So many of the places that we can't carry don't make sense.

The parking lot part of that is a real pain.

Not intending to be insensitive or offend anyone, but It would seem that this rule is to protect the emplyees from other disgruntled employees.

I have never heard of anyone walking off the street into a post office and doing harm to anyone.

Edited to include:

Of course that argument could be used the other way as well.

It just really bothers me that if I need to stop at the PO, then legally I have to leave the house unarmed or find a PO adjacent to somewhere where it is legal to park with my weapon in the car.
