That whole bit about OSHA being anti gun is baseless.

I’m sure that you trust yourself with a concealed weapon at work.

Suppose that you are the Top Dog for a large company. Are you comfortable knowing that each and every employee of your company may be carrying weapons in and out of your workplace at will?

Most do not find the risks acceptable.

About 18 years ago I was a manager working for IBM—one of the companies that forbids firearms on its premises—when an employee in an adjacent department decided that he no longer needed to take his meds for bipolar disorder. The guy really went bonkers, kicking holes in the wall of his office and threatening his fellow employees. One of his threats was that he was going to bring in an Uzi and blow away several co-workers with whom he had had disagreements. At that point his manager called security and he was hauled to the nearest hospital in a straight jacket and was not allowed to return until he agreed never to stop taking his meds. I often thought that, if the guy had acted rather than merely threatening, we would have been sitting, defenseless ducks thanks to the IBM policy.
