Ah. so when I go to apply for a job with a company, since I want to work for them, they have a right to demand a DNA sample to make sure I don't have a high chance of getting sick later and costing them money?
You say "such that it does not harm others". OK, I can live with that. So let's say an employee is driving home from work (or walking out to their car in the dark parking deck) and they get attacked and killed. Now they were not allowed to have the most effective means of self-defense because of corporate policy, yes? So their estate should be able to sue the hell out of the company for disarming them without providing an equivalent level of physical security, yes?
If you disarm people so that they cannot effectively defend themselves, you are OBLIGATED to protect them. If you fail to do so, you can be held liable.
