Libertad Cercenada

Obligar a alguien tolerar armas de fuego en su propiedad no es más legítimo que prohibírselo. El que uno tenga derecho a portar armas no implica que tenga derecho a llevarlas en la propiedad ajena sin el consentimiento del propietario, lo mismo que el derecho a la libre circulación no implica que tenga derecho a circular libremente por la casa de mi vecino sin su permiso o el derecho a la libertad de expresión no implica que pueda publicar en un periódico que no es mío aquello que me plazca.

The Florida legislature is considering a bill that would make it a third-degree felony to ban guns on company premises, according to MSNBC. This bill is being framed as a fight between property rights and gun rights. The right of a citizen to bear arms is conflicting with the right of a company to have control over its own property.

Companies are legally obligated to provide a safe work environment under federal workplace regulations. If HB 129 passes, some legal experts believe it would make it more difficult to comply. Some companies have prohibited guns on its premises because they are concerned about disgruntled former employees having quick access to firearms.
