Nope, you did not respond to Vanya's question. see post 26:

Typically situations play out like so,

Boss to media- "They acted vigilantly. They acted bravely."

Boss to Hero- "Thank you for saving everyones life. However, this is a gun free workplace. We have to let you go."
Glockstar, I'm curious -- can you cite any actual instances in which this happened?
Vanya has asked for documentation of a very specific set of facts: (1) company publicly praises the employee for his defensive actions; and (2) company fires the employee for violation of company policy.

You cite examples only of the employee being fired.
 
Well, since this old thread has now been resurrected, I will say this:
Just because the doctor was working in the hospital, that doesn't mean he was an employee of the hospital. While the landscape is changing, historically, doctors are either self employed or work for/with a group of doctors and simply have privileges to work in/admit patients to hospitals. You obviously cannot fire someone who is not your employee. Therefore, he may, by law, only have been able to be treated as a visitor that violated the weapons policy of the building he was in...at most (in most states) a misdemeanor charge.
