Some people just can’t be trusted to handle firearms responsibly.

Whenever I read stuff like this it pi$$es me off to no end. These are the same type of DB's who will refuse to issue a CCW in Kali because “you don't have a good reason because we say so”. The “Maxwell Smarts” deserve to be fired.

Last summer the UCB police chief had her gun badge and ammo stolen from her car at a East bay park. What a dumazz.

...firearms stolen from law enforcement agents' vehicles were later used in fatal slayings.

Are there non-fatal slayings?

[Old Grumpy]

Gross incompetence.

I wonder WHERE the items were - in plain sight in the vehicle?

[Ken H]

When I see stories like this I cannot help but think that the 'victim' was paid big money for the 'stolen' items.

Same here.

Also, ANY FBI employee who leaves his or her firearms in a vehicle overnight SHOULD BE FIRED ON THE SPOT.

They should be prosecuted, as an accessory.

This is what happens when you hire a bunch of businessmen and accountants to act as policemen.

FBI stands for Famous, But Incompetent.

Of course there are so good, even great ones out there. The majority of the ones I have met have absolutely no “street sense,” and would shite their pants if they ever came across anything actually “in progress.”

Transferred to the Evil One’s “domestic security force”.. Babaumaumau..

[MasterGunner01]

If only the military, LEOs, and FLEAs are qualified to have firearms (according to liberals), who do these groups have guns and other equipment get stolen from them? If they can't keep track of their weapons, how can they be seen as responsible enough to carry and posses them?

Some interesting charts from a Nov. 15, 2015 article: Unaccounted For: Hundreds of Guns Lost or Stolen From Bay Area Police Agencies Since 2010.

Interesting!

[AFreeBird]

Why are the agent’s badge and credentials locked in his cR, and not on his person?

[dfwgator]

Inside job.

[nascarnation]

He didn’t want to risk losing them at the strip club?

[AFreeBird]

Or the bath house.

[Redcitizen]

That’s why they wait till the crime scene is secured by the local Leo’s and then they come in all bossy and arrogant wanting to take charge.
