Save a life, bring a gun, lose your job?

Question

Let's see..someone is shot....nobody knew if the gunmen was still around....dude shows up with shotgun, protects and aides woman...saves her life....gets fired!!! now that's liberalism for ya!!

Tonnetta Lee survived Tuesday's pre-dawn shooting at her Jacksonville apartment, and her sister and a neighbor praised Bruley's actions. But his employers, the same people who own the Arlington complex where Bruley lives, reacted differently. They fired him.

Bruley, a leasing agent at the Oaks at Mill Creek, said he lost his job after being told that brandishing the weapon was a workplace violation, as was failing to notify supervisors after the incident occurred. He'd worked at the Monument Road complex since December and for the owner, Village Green Cos., since 2005.

Answer 1

It is a crime that he can't utilize the 2nd Amendment right that he has and protect someone without being punished. This is just plain ridiculous. I'll bet it was a liberal at that company that was trying to make an example of a decent American.

Answer 2

This is actually a tort reform, not a 2nd amendment issue. If you employ someone who's not a trained armed security guard, and you allow him to run around with a gun, you're being negligent, and are opened to liability.

Answer 3

It would be interesting to see his next interview. The 'why were you fired' question would be an interesting one to see the reaction of the interviewer.
