If you are smart enough to drop a "throwaway", chances are you are also smart enough never to find yourself in a position that you would do so.

Sorry, no excuses accepted. She should be fired.

As a civilian female, I managed to regularly utilize public restrooms while simultaneously securing my purse and two holstered concealed weapons,(I had the permit, although I don't think they should be required) and a few "iffy" exotic lethal accessories that may have been frowned upon by LEOs.

I constantly lose cigarette lighters and pens.
I have never "misplaced" a weapon.
And I'm just a mere civilian citizen.

Yes, my comment was merely about whether or not she did it purposely. I have not offered an opinion on whether or not she should be fired. I assume department policy and personal judgment will have to be used to determine that.
