One had his M-4 rifle and shotgun unsecured in a closet when his house was burgled, another left hit pistol on the front seat of his running vehicle while he went in to a convenience store, another left his in a fast food restroom and it was gone when he went back for it.

I worked for the police department for 9 years doing computer work. I heard a story of an FTO sergeant (Field Training Officer, they're in charge of rookies after they graduate from the academy) who was quite nasty (as well he should). When he saw a male trainee go to the restroom at the precinct, he'd wait a couple of minutes, then go in. If the trainee was in a stall, he'd sneak up to the stall and suddenly reach his arm over the door, trying to snag the cop's holster belt if he'd hung it on the door's hook. Needless to say, if he got the gun belt the trainee was in a lot of trouble. Proper procedure was to hang the gun belt around your neck while you're sitting doing your business.

Losing guns when you're in law enforcement happens. Cars get burgled, etc. But 74% from laxity?
