Do Company Policies About No Weapons At Work Keep You Safe?

Do company policies about no weapons at work keep you safe? I'm asking this question because of a situation that occurred between a Charlotte, NC bus driver and a passenger. The passenger pulled a gun on the bus driver after the driver refused to make an unauthorized stop and then the bus driver pulled a gun of his own. They got into a shootout on the bus. The bus driver was eventually fired because the company has a no-weapons policy in place that prevents employees from possessing weapons while on the job. Obviously, there is an issue with safety that caused this bus driver to have to be armed while performing his duties. But check out this episode where I share my thoughts about the situation.
