GEICO cancels policy because customer works in firearms industry.

Speaking of guns & cars & IBM: Oklahoma passed a law exempting your vehicle and personal property from these types of restrictions. No business can prohibit one from carrying a firearm in their car.

Do we have such a think here in Colorado?

Here in Colo. isn't your car a legal extension of your home or something along those lines? Interesting point though, curious about this too...

Not really. You're afforded a somewhat greater degree of privacy when you're in your car but certainly nothing like your home. You also don't have the same legal protections in your car that you would in your home (ie: Make My Day).

Ok, maybe I heard something in reference to the legality of carrying your gun in your glovebox.

You are confused about what is going on here. This appears to have been a commercial policy that was canceled because the vehicle was being used in a manner outside the underwriting guidelines of that particular policy. This guy wasn't restricted in any way, shape, or form, by Geico.

Ronin, it appears I've called you out in error. Simply stating "F*cik Geico!" is not evidence that you bought into the hype of this news story. You have my apologies.
Personally, I dislike Progressive more than Geico.

Glad I do not have Geico. If I did have them I would get rid of them by dark today!

Not to pick on you, but this is like the people who threaten to cancel when they find out that they can't get into a rental because they have a dent on their fender.

You can carry a handgun in your "private means of conveyance" without a permit. The handgun can be visible, concealed, loaded, unloaded...doesn't matter. As long as it's a legal gun and it's legal for you to possess it.

It's cool... and no I wasn't giving into the hype, I was just saying I despise Geico in general... besides, I may be biased because of our agency's independent nature, I'd prefer to deal with an agent than a call center... YMMV. We represent progressive- they're where we stick all the bad drivers who don't qualify for our other companies...
