Would making a person's vehicle an extension of their home remove an employer's ability to search that vehicle? I use the term vehicle to cover motorcycles, bicycles, cars, trucks, RV's, basically every form of personal mechanized travel. The hard part for carrying might still be finding a way to secure your handgun in your vehicle (especially if your vehicle is a bicycle). Combine this with eliminating 30.06 effectiveness in parking lots/garages and sidewalks, like the premises of schools excludes them, and we may have a winning approach that still leaves businesses basic control of their property. Maybe. And the obligatory: I am not a lawyer, so this may not work at all .

I don't see a solid reason why this can't be as simple as what is set up for say, schools, courthouses and the like.
You can carry UP TO the front door. Parking lots and sidewalks are public. Where does the private begin? At the

door. Thats where the 30.06 begins.

Whats so hard about that?

I know...what seems simple usaully isn't. I guess there are some that are more equal than others. Well, and lawyers.

Parking lots can be posted 30.06 too.

He's saying 30.06 should be modified so that it has no effect on parking lots, just like sidewalks and parking lots are excluded from the premises of schools. The only problem with that idea is that it only protects employees from prosecution. The usual gist of "Parking Lot" bills is to protect the employees not only from prosecution but also from being fired.
