Sadly, we need a law to keep employer’s out of employees private vehicles. I don’t recall the employers offering to guarantee an armed guard for each employee on their way to and from work.

Recall the adage that societies always have exactly the amount of crime they will tolerate.

Oh NO!!!! Blood in the streets. Every fender-bender will turn into the OK Corral. What about the children? I feel that women and minorities will be hurt the worst.

I’ll do it one better, they should be allowed to carry at work. “Right to keep and bear arms SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED”!

The bad news is that car burglaries will sharply increase at work locations.

Are you serious? Let's see, I am going to break into cars in a parking lot where I know anyone else out there might have a gun quickly accessible in his car. Guns deter crime, not encourage it.

I seriously doubt it.

1-Burglars are to lazy to work jobs and would rather take from productive society. Meaning they're LIBERALS.

2-Liberals are the ones who feel that guns randomly shoot anyone.

3-Guns only shoot victims.

4-Burglars are the real victims in society.

So with guns in cars, burglars will be afraid of robbing cars ;)

Nah. We've always kept weapons in our vehicles...the criminals still don't know which shell the pea is under.

Most people who had a shed with a roof that size call it their house.

A lot of my projects take an extensive amount of time, mostly due to sitting around and procrastinating. The key is not getting caught by the wife.
