I just saw a story on the CBC sattelite news channel that a policeman in Quebec City went to speak to children at a grade school in October. After speaking to one class, he went to the bathroom and then went on to the next class.

A few minutes later, a seven year old boy finds the policeman's gun in the toilet stall. Luckily, the kid was smart enough to rush and get a teacher. Some other kid finding the gun might have precipitated a tragedy.

The cop was described as a veteran officer with a spotless record.

I guess that just goes to show that even those with the proper training can royally screw up.
