    The cop at my daughter’s former middle school left his gun on the sink in the school bathroom. Thankfully, the kid that found it told the office. Amazingly, he got fired for it, not just paid administrative leave.

    Still, I’m glad we got her out of that shithole.

      Putting a gun on a sink in the first place is so beyond dumb. He would have had to remove it from a secure place in his holster to do that, which would be dumb even if he was in a stall dropping trou to take a huge dump, but extra dumb when in a school. Nice to hear they actually got rid of at least one dangerous person before they could do something irreversibly tragic.

      Where do you live that middle schools have cops and carry guns? My kids attend the utmost progressive hellscape that is Berkeley Unified School District and I feel like any cops at all in middle school or lower would be protested harder by the parents than the students.
