Actually, there are 3 ways they ARE going to search your person and/or find the weapon;
1. You fall down from a heart attack and they have to loosen your clothes to perform CPR.
2. You defend yourself with a gun.
3. Someone at work stole something valuable and they're searching everyone.

I've worked with people who've had all three happen to them (each incident happened to a different person). I am not that brave. I will NOT carry at work and I actually almost never carry at all (since I work 7 days a week). However, if someone else is that brave, I think we should all chip in and support that person.

No, Keith, it's not apples and oranges. During the civil rights movement of the 60's and 70's, there were rules against serving "colored" people in restaurants and lunch counters. However, brave people sat down and even braver people served them. There were rules against hiring certain groups of people, but people still applied. People donated money and time to fight unjust employers in court. That's how the civil rights movement was won. In order to achieve success, you copy successful people who've done it already. That's why we should copy the civil rights movement of the 60's and 70's. Only through solidarity will we win.

God bless America. :patriot:

Who is 'We' and how many 'We's' do you have to chip in money?
We = I and any other patriotic 2nd A supporting Americans reading this forum.
I just wondered whose money and picketing time you were so openly volunteering. :headscratch

... follow the rules when you sign on, and... you follow them or find a job where you agree with the rules.
Any Constitution Loving Patriot would volunteer time and money to ensure a constitutional government for posterity. Yes, Rosa Parks broke the rules for civil rights. Yes, Harriet Tubman broke the rules for civil rights. Millions of people marched in the 60's for civil rights and thousands were arrested. Wealthy patrons of the constitution financed all of these people; paid bail, volunteered time as a civil rights lawyer, etc. Without rule breakers, financial backing, and people who volunteer their time for civil rights, we would have ZERO civil rights. Make no mistake, your second amendment right is a civil right in the constitution. I love America and there's no other place I'd rather be.

God bless,
:tiphat:

P.S. Please VOTE and tell everyone you know to VOTE in November. The liberal news media is predicting a "landslide victory" for conservatives. They are only saying this to keep you from voting because lazy people will not vote because they will count on others to make it a "landslide". IF we have a November victory, it will be narrow. It will NOT be a "landslide". Complacency equals failure. I invite you to do your patriotic duty and VOTE !

Re: Carrying at Work

If any of y'all carry at work where it is legal but against employee rules and you get fired, let us know and we'll picket the place for you. We'll write letters for you. We'll even chip in a couple bucks apiece to help you make rent. We have got to stick up for each other or we'll lose our 2nd A rights, one work place at a time.

If you think that the risk of losing your job justifies the risk of not carrying, then carry away. Check with your lawyer first. There may be legal "loophole" in your employee handbook. For example, if there is an exception for "security personnel", you could get hired part-time to work for them elsewhere on another campus as a security guard. Then, have a "hypothetical situation" conversation with your boss with slippery slope logic so that you have your boss implying that you could also have a role as a "security personnel" at your present position. Record this conversation. Then, if they try to fire you due to your carrying, they'll have no legal ground to stand on. Speak with your lawyer. I am not a lawyer so there may be other "legal loopholes" I am unaware of.

IANAL.
