The way trucks are being stolen here at General Dynamics, I'd rather see people bring their guns inside. At least the guns wouldn't fall into some wetbacks hands.
Unless you are the one making the car payments on my car, you can HAVE no property Right claim to it. Period.
I have no idea how that remotely relates to what I posted.
As my employee, You follow my rules when you come onto my property. Dont like my rules when it comes to your car, dont come onto my property with it. Simple as that. If I dont want guns on my property, why shouldnt you respect my rights?
Your property Rights to your land do not automatically give you property Rights over my vehicle. The very idea is absurd.
Will Rogers said it as, "Your right to swing your fist stops at my nose."
Go NRA! This is why I pay my dues.
Unless an employer owns the cars their employees drive to work, it's none of their business whether any legal object or another is in them.
Your gun is your property. I dont want it. I also may not want it at my place of business. If I make it clear that I dont want these on my property, you DONT do it. You may not like it, and to many it may not make sense, but you have not right to thumb your nose at your employer's rules because you want to bring your guns to work. And yes their are plenty of places that do a check of your car before you enter a workplace. If its a condition of going onto the property, then thats life.
You can't have a firearm in your car on a military base. I don't even think you can have one in your home on base. I think you must lock it up in a base armory.
If that's a simple solution, I'd sure hate to see a complicated solution.
You may not like not being able to dictate what my personally owned vehicle contains, but this is a personal problem you need to work on. If the contents of your employees conveyances is such a concern, buy them company cars to commute in. Just realize, that their safety too and from their residences is yours as well, since you won't allow them personal firearms for protection. So you may want to contract a private security firm to shadow them while they commute.
Or, you can just stop being an arsehole and let your employees exercise their Rights.
So that would overrule the state probably. I know, this is why I dan't carry one in my vehicle. Nowadays, the last thing I want, is to have my car searched and have a gun in the glovebox found when I come to work.
its about time......
Do you have any references?

Ask the guard at any military base entrance. Or call base police HQ.
I think you are mistaken.
Plenty of bases offer recreational shooting ranges, trap and skeet clubs, etc. to their military and civilian members. These are typically not within walking distance of base housing, thus it can be assumed a vehicle is needed to transport the shooter and his or her firearm(s) to the range. A car is likely, or perhaps a bus for those without automobiles.
A shotgun shuttle from the armory to the skeet range? Unlikely.
I'm not aware of any requirement that privately-owned firearms be stored in a "base armory" when not in use. In all likelihood, military regulations would prohibit keeping private weapons in a place designated for secure storage of -- let's face it -- extremely lethal weapons whose possession by ordinary citizens would likely be viewed with extreme prejudice.
Perhaps one of our esteemed military FReepers can shed some light on whether the gun-control fanatics have infiltrated the military or not. My hunch is that they have not.
In most cases it's not "while on business property" that is the problem. It's that stop at the stop and rob on the way home, or walking from your car to a restaurant, a movie, or even your apartment. By not being able to have a firearm in your privately owned vehicle, you are disarmed at all those times as well.
My employer recently changed it's policies, as written rather than as enforced, to not preclude having a firearm in your POV. Unfortunately where I actually work is not on my employer's property, and there they not only ban privately owned weapons, they do spot searches of vehicles to enforce that rule.
I cannot carry my weapon to work on any military base in the Tidewater area. There was a memo a couple years ago, about weapons in base housing, I can't remember the exact wording, it was pretty limiting, but in the least, it has to be registered with the armory on base.
