Titled: Worker right or workplace danger?

In an effort to keep weapons out of the workplace, his employer, ConocoPhillips, is challenging state law and has forbidden workers to leave guns in their cars in company parking lots. Now, the National Rifle Association (NRA) is encouraging gun owners to stop buying ConocoPhillips gasoline.

The boycott is the latest skirmish in an expanding battle over gun control. Now that many states allow citizens to carry concealed weapons, the NRA is pushing to eliminate remaining restrictions on where those guns can be taken. Gun-control groups - and some employers - are fighting back.

I am not a member of the NRA but I am joining the boycott. I can certainly understand if a place a business wants to keep weapons out of their buildings but a person's vehicle is their private property. If you are licensed to carry a weapon in the general public why shouldn't you also be able to keep one locked in your car at your place of employment? A ban will not stop someone from using a weapon to harm someone if that is their intent.
