And then you’re faced with the dilemma that others have faced in the same situation - do you fish them out or leave them and replace them secretly.

The ever present question of what to do with your concealed carry weapon while you’re taking a dump...

I was wondering the same thing. I am almost certain that Florida does not require registration of guns.

Arresting the wrong people is now official policy.

Oops..left the gun at a different location.

“In the toilet”

Before or after he used the toilet?

CCW classes ought to teach a SOP for this.

1. If the holster is removable, take it out, tuck the whole thing in your weak side armpit.

2. Wipe the seat with your strong hand,

3. drop trou,

4. turn and sit,

5. place the holstered firearm in the cradle created by the crotch of your pants,

6. complete your business,

7. put the holstered firearm back in your weak side armpit,

8. stand and pull up your pants,

9. reattach / reinsert holstered firearm

I’d pay money to watch a stage like this at an IDPA / IPSC event.

Yeah this guy is stupid for not securing his weapon, and deserves to be smacked down.

But at least he didn’t waltz into a school and start shooting up the place.

The wino on the other hand probably sh!t his pants when that gun actually fired a round.

At least it was in a restroom.

“Police arrested Mr Simpson and Joseph Spataro, 69, at the scene.

Mr Simpson was charged with failing to safely store a firearm”

And yet Nikolas Cruz wasn’t arrested a single time for any of the multiple gun offences of which he was accused. I’m guessing Mr. Simpson wasn’t eligible for the Promise Program.

Setup....
To show irresponsibility of teachers to be armed...


Setup - my first thought exactly.

ROFL!! That was funny!!

"And then you’re faced with the dilemma that others have faced in the same situation - do you fish them out or leave them and replace them secretly."

Had to fish them out as you had to sign for them, plus they were inscribed with a serial number, and had to be either turned into the arsenal at the end of your shift, or turned over to your relief. The arsenal officer had to account for all the equipment at the end of each shift. They'd call you at home if you'd forgotten to turn them in.

If he mistakenly left his Keys in his Car and a Drunk Dude jumped in and took off, what would the Teacher be charged with?

This sounds too convenient, considering the recent push to arm teachers/keep teachers from being armed.

The story/narrative scores high on my BS meter.

LOL. Thread winner, so far.
