gun violence in the workplace tends to be from people coming back after with vengeance, not bringing guns to work every day just in case.

immediately escorting somebody off the premises seems more likely to trigger such gun violence than avoid it.

in any case, gun violence remains a very unlikely event wrt to the headlines it receives (divide the statistics by "out of 335 million people")

Even the most deranged employees likely won’t have weapons on them. Most of the workplace violence seems to happen when a disgruntled (ex)employee returns to their place of work some time after the fact.

Ah, the pernicious paranoia behind the security state. Why trust anyone when they can do bad things, especially to assets?

Treat people systematically in inhuman ways, sooner or later one of them will crack in unpredictable ways.

Because they are human beings with rights.

The question is actually: Why let our employers being able to treat us like a disposable tissue?
