TN safe commuter act does not protect your job.

It only protects you from being criminally procicuted as you are not breaking the law, only an employeers policy.

Looks like they fuzzed up. This needs to be fixed.

I dont nessessarly agree. As you know TN is a right to work state and an employer can come up with any silly rule he wants to and fire you for violation. The biggest difference is that right now if you take your gun say onto VTS Smyrna or FEDEX in Memphis, not only can you be fired but can also go to jail. The Safe Commute act simply removes the criminal charges. I think it is actually a balance for both gun and employeer/property owner rights. The employeer still owns the property, they still hvae rights as property owners. As long as it is out of site they will never know it is there unless you tell them. They can still ask to search and you can tell them no but they can fire you for that too.
