#1 Excuse me but do these people often walk around with their guns out in their hands such that they have to put it down to wash their hands, take a dump, or Bowl?

Someone should tell BigSis that they have this new high tech thing out now called a Holster.....

#2 It's OK. The round of bullet is kept in the shirt pocket.

#3 "Round of bullet"? Barney Fife packs a .38, not a shutter gun...

#4 This is an OLD problem with any agency that has firearms. Pick any agency, any decade in the last 100 years and you will find there are lost firearms. There are usually "interesting" stories involved.

#6 Besoeker's easy two step fix:

You BUY your weapon when you graduate from the academy. If you "lose" it, you BUY another. If you "lose" a fully automatic weapon from the department arms room, you buy that weapon as well and are terminated.

I suspect we would see a dramatic decrease in.... "lost" weapons.

Special note: Other than possibly the US Border Patrol, I see absolutely no use for fully automatic weapons in US law enforcement.
