Courts allow corps to continue violation of Occupational Safety and Health Act

Helmke asks:

What do you call a law that forces employers to accept guns on their property, when doing so makes it impossible to provide a safe workplace under the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA)?

What a joke! Those companies should be sued for violation of the act. Work place shootings happen because of their prohibitions on possessing firearms on their property. Their prohibitions remove the employee’s ability to defend himself, therefore creating an unsafe workplace. I hope that the next time a workplace shooting occurs, an employee sues the company into bankruptcy for failure to protect the employee.
