Life is full of them in most every waking moment. Quote:
If you think a certain act is immoral and post that you don't want that act performed on your property, I then come to your house and perform that act , do I have a right to do so cause I don't think the act is immoral? And that you are immoral for having the rule you do. Would you throw me off your property? Or would you accept the fact that you think the acts immoral, I don't so it's okay. Do I have the right to come on your property and deceive you and perform that act? Quote:
I finished it for ya. Again life is full of choices. There are some states/places that getting caught cc'ing while at work would probably only get you fired. Then there are places of employment that getting caught cc'ing could just as easily get you a felony rap. I guess one has to weigh the possibility of needing a gun at work with the consequences for getting caught. |

The rule is immoral because it is allowing a condition to exist that could be remedied at the expense of another. Therefore, the other has no obligation to obey it.

BTW in what states is it a felony to carry at work? At least if you have a legal permit. Now, as I said before I am not talking about carrying in the Pentagon but a stop and rob. Again, keep it in context. Quote:

So shortwave,
Time for you to pony up. Your choices are; work a dangerous job where there is a good chance you will be attacked by a criminal. You can't quit (or if you do your family will suffer great deprivation) and your company will not allow CCW. Do you not carry and face the strong possibility of being killed or injured by a criminal? Or do you carry anyway and face being fired?

I would argue that it is more immoral to allow uncertified people to bring loaded guns to work vs. denying one employee to carry. What moral person prioritizes one person over a group of people.
I'll answer TG's question to Shortwave: Carry something(s) other than a gun. No one ever died from dropping mace or a bat. It isn't like guns are force fields that prevent violence. They just provide another option when threatened - an option that may actually increase your likelihood of being killed in some situations. There is no panacea for violent crime. |
