I wonder what happened to the employee, I remember hearing about this when it happened but all the news articles I can find now just say the employee was placed on a leave of absence pending an investigation.
Maybe but I would be surprised if that was the case. If it's against state laws that's one thing, but I doubt Pizza Hut has a policy against legal carrying. Maybe they do and I'm wrong but I think it's unlikely.
It's very rare to find any big company that's gonna let their employee's carry guns while working. It would likely open them up to a shit ton of liability if they did let employee's carry.
Yeah you're right they don't allow firearms that sucks. I guess you're right about the liability but if I was an employee I would argue that customers can carry in the store so why shouldn't the employees? Just seems like a shame to lose your job for protecting both the workers and the business interests.
Yep, I agree. That's why I've carried concealed at every job I've had since I got my permit, regardless of company policy. Not gonna affect anyone since no one will ever know unless something happens in which case I'll cross that bridge when I get there. I'll take getting fired over being a victim. Same goes for businesses that have "No firearms" signs. Government buildings are another story, though, not carrying there haha.
Yeah I'm with ya 100% dude, I carry everywhere. I work for the government so I can neither confirm nor deny whether or not I would carry at work, but you know how it is.

Why? He's not a cop, they don't need to put him on leave for a defensive shooting.
More than likely against company policy to carry a gun.
