What if I have to "file a grievance" if you know what I mean..heh heh heh...
It's gun-nut day at the tbogg corral:
The National Rifle Association is urging its 4 million members to boycott ConocoPhillips gas stations and products because the oil giant is trying to block an Oklahoma law that allows employees to keep guns in their cars when parked in company lots.
Conoco is among several companies challenging the state law in federal court, but the NRA singled it out for the boycott.
“Across the country, we’re going to make ConocoPhillips the example of what happens when a corporation takes away your Second Amendment rights,” NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre said.
[...]
Conoco said in a statement that it wants to protect its workers from possible violence.
“ConocoPhillips supports the Second Amendment and respects the rights of law abiding citizens to own guns,” the company said. “We are simply trying to provide a safe and secure working environment for our employees by keeping guns out of our facilities, including our company parking lots.”
Cause you never know when a pheasant or an eight-point buck is going to jump up in the executive parking lot and who wants to be standing there with their dick in their hand?
I mean more than usual.
According to a study by Handgun-Free America, which seeks to ban private handgun ownership, there were 164 workplace shootings in the United States between 1994 and 2003, in which 290 people were killed and 161 were wounded.
Remember: Gun rampages are covered by the Second Amendment. It's one of those penumbras we keep hearing about.
