We can all realize places where guns shouldnt be allowed except for certain instances (schools, bars, chemical plants).


You were making a lot of sense until you made this broad statement.

Limits on where guns should be "allowed" to be carried is completely arbitrary. They are merely there to make people "feel" good and respect their "feelings" to "feel" safe.

I do respect the right of a property owner to restrict firearm access because I respect property rights. But the limit that is put on said property by the owner is, again, arbitrary.

Your statement is analogous to saying, "we should all agree with common sense gun registration." If I don't agree, I have no common sense.

My company says i can't have a gun in my company car. I told my boss there will be a gun in my car, except when i know i'm driving into a chemical plant or refinery.

He then told me about the magnet he got to go under his steering wheel to hold his gun in his company car, and said if they want to fire me after i defend myself and kill someone, so be it. I'd rather get fired than die.

Brief explanation on boat gun laws




The point was to illustrate a, generally accepted, public safety concern with people carrying firearms in certain places.
Go to Congress in Washington DC. When you try and enter the buildings, they check you for guns. Concealed Permit or not, you cannot bring a gun inside unless you are an on duty police/security officer.
Why is that?

What about a school?

You may not agree that "gun free" school zones are safer but most lawmakers agree.

A reasonable public safety concern exists. As so, you may use that argument as a private property owner too in order to argue against the law posted.
