Alabama's new right to bear arms at work bill

This is an interesting Bill but the article is just plain stupid!

This is used as an example of why a law like this is important -

“Miranda Perry is a waitress at Sidelines Sports Deli in Florence. When her night-shift ends, she has to walk through the restaurant parking lot and across the street to get to employee parking.’ It’s a little scary," says Perry. "I'll be walking to my car by myself and looking backwards all the time.’”

And this is what the bill would do for Miranda – “The bill would prohibit employers from establishing policies or rules that stop gun permit holders from keeping a gun locked in their car while they're at work.”

How the hell is keeping a gun locked in her car going to help Miranda during her walk through the parking lot and across the street?  “Hold on now, wait right there.  I’ve got a gun locked in my car!  If you try to assault me, I’ll run across the street and get it!  Then you’ll really be sorry!”

While we need to support attempts to fight the anti-gun crowds, we need to keep things in perspective.
