    Why has no one put the blame on the officer for not having his firearms secured in his vehicle? You keyboard pirates always jump on an individual like a pack of hyenas when this happens to them.

    The rifle was taken from the rack, and it's unknown how/where the shotgun was.

    Shame on him for leaving his stuff in his truck.

    There you go. Hope you're happy now Blue Diamond.

    I read the article again and it would lead on to think they were secured. Quote from the article "Around the same time, the Police Department received a call from a business in the 700 block of 26th Ave. reporting that they had found what appeared to be a gun stand that belongs inside of a police vehicle laying near the gate to the business."

    I used to work for a wrecker service and we recovered a four wheeler for the LDWF. The tailgate of the truck was locked. The four wheeler was locked in a tie down. The truck was parked in his driveway near his house. It was still stolen and repainted. Recovered near Abita where the youths riding it bailed.

    Both guns were secured in the gun rack. The rack was unbolted from the unit and discarded a few blocks away.

    Well look at that Blue Diamond, an actual rack was ripped out of the vehicle. I'm so glad I take so many extra steps to secure my equipment.

    I hear ya JR, but we should all know by now, that's the thing with thieves. Unless you are standing guard over something, if they want it, they will get it. Even a safe is not the ultimate deterrent.

    Truer words have never been spoken.

    Get on YouTube and search "defeating a gunsafe." It's frightening.

    I would speculate that any LEO that brought a dept. weapon home secured in a dept. vehicle as per dept. protocol would be better off than if they brought it inside and it was stolen out of his house or even their safe in terms of liability. Today every thing is about the CYA on everything.
