I think that they should write the law so that it only applies to "corporations". These are legal entities which are granted privileges including limited liability. It should not be unreasonable for such entities to conduct themselves in ways which do not infringe rights.

In this way, the rights of private proprietorships to control their parking areas would be preserved, but corporations would be required to be "good citizens" who do not infringe the right to keep and bear arms.

This would seem to be a small price to pay for the substantial benefits which incorporation provides and it is completely consistent for the legislature to dictate what benefits and requirements attach to incorporation.

If a privately run hardware store wishes to disarm me in their parking lot but Home Depot is forbidden to do so, I know where I will choose to shop.

What is being "preserved"?
What does a private proprietorship gain by acting against our Constitutional mandate that the RKBA's shall not be infringed?

That's the problem with our laws and tax code today. Too many exceptions. You saying that just because the company I work for isn't a certain type of Legal Entity, my rights aren't as good as others? The second amendment says "shall not be infringed" and there are no exceptions in there.

If I have a "right to carry" permit (which is unconstitutional in itself) where am I going to put my gun when I get to the driveway of my company's parking lot? I've never understood that. I gotta throw it in the ditch across the street and go pick it up when I get off this evening? Liberals are absurd.
