Visiting Washington DC. Come for the political gridlock, stay for the free guns left in the Capitol bathrooms.

They found a gun where?
Courtesy of the Hill Blotter:  

When a member of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s security detail left his Glock and magazine stuffed in the toilet seat cover holder of a Capitol Visitor Center bathroom stall, a CVC worker found the gun, according to a source familiar with the Jan. 29 incident and two other disturbing instances when Capitol Police left loaded firearms in problematic places. 

A 7- or 8-year-old child visiting the Capitol with his parents found the next loaded Glock lost by a dignitary protection officer, according to the source. A member of the security detail for John A. Boehner, R-Ohio, allegedly left the firearm in the bathroom of the Speaker’s Suite on March 24. 

A third Glock was found the night of April 16 by a janitor cleaning the Capitol Police headquarters building on D Street NE. The weapon was left in plain sight, sparking additional concern about the department charged with protecting one of the world’s most important and frequently visited complexes.

The Hill Blotter also explains that the Glock does not have a "traditional safety" which means that lucky seven or eight year old could have been happily exercising his 2nd Amendment rights all over the halls of Congress. Boy I bet THAT would have made the NRA proud.

And remember folks, more guns means a safer America.

    The Slimy Woman has crawled out from under her rock...or else her ghostwriter has....

    She goes from 0-60 there in record time, and with record lack of thought – or evidence. She has already begun with the assumption that Obama is hostile to Israel, and then made the events she discusses fit into her preconceived outline.

      "preternaturally?" I say ghostwriter. Besides, she was at the Derby with the props.

    This sounds crass, but if that kid could have found Boehner's office to 'return' the gun, I wouldn't have been too sad had it fired 'accidentally.'

    How exactly does a person lose a firearm? It just makes no sense to me.

    Poor Boner! The look on his face makes it seem they found the glock during his prostate exam. Calm down, it's like being a little pregnant or a little pro gun, until they find a gun in your bathroom. The best part was this happened in January, and the drunk cheeto commercial aka the Whizzard of duh, is just now finding out.

    Well played, Mr President.
