TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - Florida residents would be able to keep
guns in their cars while at work under a bill that will likely be
signed by the governor.
The bill passed the Senate today. The House already passed an
identical version. Governor Charlie Crist says the bill has a good
chance of getting his signature, adding that "the Second Amendment
is very important."
Supporters of the bill say people have a constitutional right to
carry firearms and should be able to keep guns in their cars for
protection. Business owners argue they have a constitutional right
to set the rules on their own property.
The bill says businesses can't prohibit employees or customers
from keeping a legally owned gun locked inside their cars -- that's
if the gun owner has a permit to carry a concealed weapon. But some
places, such as schools and prisons, wouldn't have to comply.

But, If you had a gun too… that could even a few things out wouldnt it? Sure, there are some guys at school that I would NEVER want to be in the same room with if they had a gun. Say they pulled it out like so many kids are doing these days. Well, if that law had passed a few weeks ago and there were other people with guns on campus, I am sure that he would be shot before he did nearly as much damage as he could have been had the other students been unarmed.

I don’t like the idea of some of the people I work with having guns.  In fact, I think some of them should be limited to crayons only!

Yes I carry my gun at all times.  And Yes I have a permit.

Uhm. Don’t really want to be Ugly Harry here.. but, how does keeping a gun in my car protect me from a shooter that is… inside… the building. Don’t really see how this helps my safety >_>
