Re: 2nd amendment V private comapny
if i had a job and the rules said no biscuits. i wouldn't take in biscuits. i don't need them. i'm not gonna complain about my human rights or civil liberties if it's their private preference and i don't have to work for them. if i get sacked for it, it's my own stupid fault. if i was a bit crazy and wanted to take a gun into work where i wasn't allowed one. i wouldn't take it, because i don't need it and it's against the rules

Or can't you leave biscuits in your car either.
Guns are weapons, biscuits are not...unless I made them.
Legal weapons are still classified as weapons. Many companies prohibit weapons on
their property.
So companies can make prohibitions re items, so long as they are considered weapons, but not biscuits.
What about an umbrella, can they sack you for having one in your car, in their car park.

No not to my knowledge.
To add to this fiasco, the fella knew what company policy was and broke the rule anyway.
Wanna do away with a rule, fight to have it changed.
There different rules in my company than when I started well over a decade ago. Some of folks that broke the rules back then would probably still have their job by today's rules and vice-versa.

What if they banned the word "The", would you not use it.
Human rights be damned, the employer's word is law.
No wait, shit loads of people went thro' serious hard times to stop that kind of servile thinking. At least they did where I come from.

Over here, that's why unions exist.
Our unions wouldn't get far if they shitfit over things like carrying a gun and companies wouldn't if they harped on the word "the".
In absence of unions, your only recourse is the court.

Go to court. The umbrella is not classified as a weapon. It's primary purpose is to keep rain off of you when......uh...going to parking lot from the office and vice-versa.

To be fair, I have no idea what that means.
I suspect you have the same sensation re the concept of abstraction.
What if a company banned red socks, would that be OK.
