Re: Proof that SB321 is not limited to CHL's

Thanks, I was wondering where that was coming from.

Are you referring to me?

This is pretty much the law now. I pass by/get checked in by a guard, then drive to a parking lot. I then have to walk throught a card activated turn-stile. So I am actually in a "double" protected lot. Being as I'm only 6 miles from home, and I want to keep my job and NOT challange the HR team, I think I'll continue to leave my weapon at home, it's just no worth the hassle. I can see the companies making a big deal if you actually drove into the plant, but we don't at mine.

Re: Proof that SB321 is not limited to CHL's

It is in a restricted area. The current law prohibits me from keeping one in my car. But what does the new law allow?

Re: Proof that SB321 is not limited to CHL's

First post here. Been reading around the site for while tonight and following links left and right. Great job on the site.
I have a question on the wording here:

In order to get the Bill out of committee, it was necessary to limit the application of SB321 to CHLs in chemical manufacturing plants and refineries. These companies wanted to be completely exempt from SB321 and, failing that, they wanted CHLs to be able to have only handguns in their cars. Fortunately, our friends in Austin stood firm and the only concession made was limiting SB321 to CHLs, but allowing them to have any type of firearm and ammunition they wish in their cars.

I work for one of those companies. I know in the past law if you passed through a gate access point or guarded enterance, I could not leave a gun in my vehicle. I do park in a lot at my site; we don't actually drive into the plant. Does SB321 allow me now to keep it in my vehicle? I'm not a lawyer by any means and I want to make sure I understand all the legal talk. :bigear:
