I'm defending our 2nd amendment right to have guns in our cars.

You have a right to do such in your car on public property. If you go on private property, you either need to conform to the wishes of that individual or leave.

It shows a profound lack of understanding of the nature of the Constitution, which is clearly set up to protect individual rights from infringements of any type from any source.

Show me ANY writing by the Founders that said the Bill of Rights was a constraint on individuals. ONE.

Your claim that The Bill of Rights is not a prohibition on individual action is belied by the fact that we are all obligated to support & defend the law; - the law of the land as in Article VI.
All officials are sworn to defend it, as are all naturalized citizens. Those of us born here have that same obligation.

Nope. the company [and local government] requires me to use the parking lot while working. They have no power to search my car for 'banned' items.
-- To claim they do shows a profound lack of understanding of the nature of the Constitution, which is clearly set up to protect individual rights from infringements of any type from any source.

Article VI clearly says that all officials [who are individuals] are bound by oath to support the Constitution. That's one.
