My fellow classmate Kim Hernandez,
posted an article on her blog PoliTexas, concerning a private businesses’ right
to ban concealed weapons on their property. In my previous article I also
discussed the same topic, however our views appear to be diametrically opposed.
I do not think businesses should be able to ban concealed weapon carry. Texans
are legally able to conceal carry with the proper permit. It is not the
function for individual business to regulate Texas law. I do not believe that
citizens who legally carry concealed weapons should be liable for the
possibility of their weapon being stolen out of their locked vehicle, just for
the gun ban compliance of a business. However, if a business were to hang a ban
sign, I think it should only be a suggestion of the company’s preference; as
well as the concealed weapon carrier’s decision whether or not he or she feels
comfortable leaving their weapon in their vehicle.
