Rewarded with Punishment

An armed man attempted to rob an AutoZone in Virginia. One of the employees, who is also a veteran, snuck out the store and grabbed his legally-owned gun from his vehicle. He returned and was able to scare the robber away. This saved his company $2,000 and possibly the store managers life.

He was rewarded by being fired. Why? Because he violated company policy by bringing a personal weapon into the store.

Do you guys agree with this?

I think that he should be fired because rules are rules.
If someone breaks a rule, you can't just start making exceptions.
Also, guns.

Although rules are rules, there should be a few exceptions sometimes.

What if the veteran dude wouldn't have scared the robber, he would have taken the money, and probably having the veteran fired too for "doing nothing".
