Ditto - BTW - wasn't there some big hooptee in Ok some time back over employees having weapons in their vehicles? What happened there?

The NRA got onvolved in one casse of a guy getting fired. I do not think it helped much, but they were protesting the company after he was fired.

I work for a chemical company(company B). This company owns two units that they bought from another company (companyA) (these units are within the property of company A). My company now comes out with a policy that states there are to be no wepaons or ammo anywhere (including areas that they do not own within company A),if they are found, the employee can be terminated. They claim they can search our vehicles (even though we park on another companies property- owned by company A). I plan on keeping my handgun in my truck, I have a CHL so I carry it all the time except at work. I figure that they cannot force me to open my vehicle, since they have no legal right (espscially since it on on another companies property. I also figure that if they called the Police, I would make them get a warrant which I assume they would need probable cause for (I'm not sure what I would be doing that would warrant that). I realize that they can fire me for any reason, but I'd rather lose my job than my life. I make call outs around the clock, there's no telling what I may encounter on teh way to or from work. What do you guys think?
