They shouldn’t be losing *any* firearms. Unless it’s in the line of duty (losing a weapon in combat or it falling somewhere unretrievable while chasing someone, etc.), losing your weapon should be cause for instant dismissal.

I remember a story several years ago where a FBI van full of firearms was stolen, as they stopped for a coffee break in Memphis.

An FBI agent follows procedure and leaves a firearm locked in an Agency car. A lowlife breaks in and steals the firearm.

You are saying the agent should be fired? Why?

[marktwain]

The whole idea that super tight controls should be placed on firearms is part of the propaganda effort to keep firearms from the general population.

If the FBI has a dozen or a hundred firearms stolen in a year, it makes virtually no difference to the crime rate in a country with over 450 million firearms circulating.

The amount of tax payer money being paid for these insanely tight controls is stupid.

Losing a firearm is a serious issue. I believe lying in the prosecution of a case is a far more serious issue.

” losing your weapon should be cause for instant dismissal.”

Brings up an interesting question.
How many if any special agents are fired if any?

How about the dancing boy agent?
Is is S.O.P. to keep a round in the chamber when off duty? WHY?
Last I heard he was transferred.
Did they keep him for laughs?

But they are so special, no need for body cameras!
Their notes are infallible. Even after multiple edits!

The FBI? F them and feed them fish heads.
