Requiring CCW for
Employees: A Smart Move

In a recent defense story from Cleveland, Ohio, a man said that he had a concealed carry permit because his past employer required it. From cleveland.com:

He said he has a concealed carry permit because he used to work at a barbershop, and the owner required barbers to get their concealed carry licenses for their protection.

I suspect that more businesses are taking this approach. It brings about many benefits. Last year, we had the example of a Georgia business owner who required his employees to be armed. He would give them a Taurus Judge revolver when they showed him their concealed carry permit.

Here are a few of the advantages. They have been hidden behind false narratives and misinformation about people who legally carry guns... .......

Dean Weingarten comments on another way that a 'gun-free-zone' business can be avoided. Arguably many might of course make the point that a permit should not itself be needed, but the principle here is laudable - whereby the business owner insures against the possibility of an armed attack by having recourse to an armed response. Not only are the employees potentially safer but, as or more important, so are the customers.
