OMG! And we're supposed to "trust" the government to protect us???

Thought this might interest you....scary!

But now there's an additional concern. The FBI is reporting that one of their vehicles was stolen in Northwest Washington on Friday. Inside that car was government issued protective gear like a bullet proof vest. But even more disturbing to some is that a submachine gun is now missing.

And the Liberals think we'll all be safer when only LEOs have the guns. Cripes.

A machine gun on the street isn't a security threat????

** SHEESH **

[Rudder]

The stolen FBI vehicle is a 1998 4-door black, Ford Crown Victoria, with Virginia tags

And black sidewalls...

[zzen01]

The FBI is just STUPID!

[Peach]

What utter carelessness.

This was pulled from breaking news but "Katie Colonic" is breaking news????

Hi All-

"...Officials say the incident is embarrassing, but not a security threat..."

That is great news that it is NOT considered a security threat. Does that mean that our legislators will update the laws so that Americans are free to add Heckler & Koch MP5s to our collections?

That's odd. I just bought a MP5 for $50 cash tonight in Seattle. Some dude in Pioneer Square said he found it.

The stolen FBI vehicle is a 1998 4-door black, Ford Crow Victoria

They meant "eat crow" Victoria.

"The stolen weapon is an MP5, which is a 9 millimeter submachine gun. The MP5 is specially designed for American law enforcement" says counterterrorism expert Larry Johnson.

According to Johnson "It's a submachine gun, multiple bullets, law enforcement use, cannot walk into local gun store and purchase one of these".

Aren't most weapons used by terrorists former government weapons that have been "acquired" by the terrorists?

Bump so that maybe DC area freepers see this. It wasn't considered important enough. It was pulled from breaking news.

A Maryland state police officer put the street value of this weapon at $50,000.

ROFLMAO Maybe if he can find a really dumb drug dealer to sell it to. Why would someone want a 9mm (I thought FBI and BATF had 10mm MP-5s? ) sub gun, when for a a few hundred, or less, they could get a full auto assault rifle (AK type)?

[El Gato]

Because the weapon is now reported missing, police are being urged to approach the vehicle with extreme caution.

They should just back off, call the FBI and tell them to come take care of their own d@&m car. :)
