If office coffee wasn't dangerous enough
Look at the world through the eyes of Mark Madsen and you see the landscape of Mad Max. Marauding hordes of chain-and-leather draped punks circle the office parking lot, waiting to set upon Dilbert and other innocents. (At $3 a gallon for gas, it starts to make sense.)
The Lehi senator is pushing a bill that would even the odds for Dilbert, by letting him pack a 9mm, sawed-off shotgun or crossbow in his car. "This is a measure to protect law-abiding citizens wanting self-protectio
n," Madsen says.If a woefully misguided business owner wants to keep the company parking lot gun-free, Madsen says, build a security fence or wall around it, but have a gun locker available for concealed gun permit holders to store their gats. Second Amendment rights don't come cheap.
John Williams, president of restaurant chain Gastronomy, who obviously has never fought off a gay mohawked psychopath with a flame thrower (Madsen has and his name is McCoy), opines, "It sounds like a ridiculous waste of time, dealing with this kind of legislation. In the 35 years of doing business, nothing has occurred where this legislation would be required."
In a revealing choice of words, Madsen, who, incidentally, packs a handgun at the Legislature, argues a business owner's "power does not creep up under the carriage of the car and into the glove box or trunk," to control a worker's property.
