LOL. I had to read that twice...

"I wish I could carry at work" and, "I have to terminate employees" just sorta jumped out at me.
Sorry, it does sound kind of weird, but terminate is the term we have to use at my employment. It is a catch all for fired, retired, quit, laid off, ect.......

That begs the question: If the Brady Bunch is the standard by which we judge gun grabbers, then shouldn't a perfect record on the RKBA earn you a 0; or, is it a case that even a broken clock is right once every 12 hours?

According to the Brady Campaign, we earned those 9 points for:
A) Restricting access to handguns for children under the ages of 16/17 - 5 out of 5 possible points;
B) Employers not forced to allow firearms on premises - 2 out of 2 possible points;
C) Colleges are not forced to allow firearms on campus - 2 out of 2 possible points.

What do you all think? Would a 0 have been better than a 9?
Though I have not been a carrier for very long, I wish I could carry at work. I am in management and sometimes I have to terminate employees. Some of them I worry may come back with a vendetta and I have no way to protect myself. I do believe that CHL should be allowed on a college campus, this may have prevented some unnecessary killings. Under the ages of 15/16, that one I don't have an opinion about. Growing up on a farm in Kentucky, guns were a normal part of my upbringing from a very young age, but city life is different.
