Bass Pro policy RE employees firearm possession in personal vehicle

[GKar]

That kind of falls apart too though. I've employed people I wouldn't let have a gun in my shop. There's a big difference between trusting someone to be on time and not steal, do their job effectively, and not sass customers and carrying a gun in a business I'm responsible for. I'd say Wally zero correlation actually.

Again, I'm not talking about carrying IN a business.  I'm talking specifically about keeping an otherwise legally -owned and possessed firearm in the car.  Like your customers are already allowed to do.

A negligent discharge or an intentional shooting takes place at (fill in the name of the mega deep pockets business here) and someone gets seriously injured or killed. The sharks will be circling and many will think the victim deserves a payday. That’s what lawyers try to protect the businesses they work for from.

If the state wants to allow carry, or in the case of the parking lot bills, force allowing guns on private property; those same laws should give the businesses absolute immunity from even having to defend themselves in a civil suit. But that is not the case and I’m not sure they could do that.

Here is an example; I'm sure there are many more.

From the article:

 

 

As a concession to Tennessee businesses, Public Chapter No. 16 provides employers with immunity from liability for injuries resulting from the “transportation” and “storage” of a firearm and/or ammunition in a privately owned vehicle.
