The workers contended, among other things, plant security officers violated their federal constitutional right against unreasonable searches and seizures by telling them they would be fired if they did not permit a search of their vehicles. The former employees also contended the law violated their right under the Oklahoma Constitution to keep guns.

When are people going to learn that the Constitution controls the actions of the government with respect to the citizens, not the actions of an employer with respect to its employees?

Try hiring only white Christians at your company. Or try paying 50¢ an hour for sewing socks. See how fast the government swoops down on you to enforce the favored government policy.

Government picks and chooses which rights it decides to enforce on private property. It's all quite arbitrary, depending on the PC flavor of the month.

I would have told my attorney to pursue the angle that armed employees contribute to public safety.

When are people going to learn that the Constitution doesn't grant any rights, it simply enumerates some of them that where given to men (and women) by God.

Interesting, try as an employer not hiring, or firing someone because they are female, or black or tall or fat and let me know how it goes.
My question is why is the 2nd amendment the only one the hasn't been applied to the states?
