Guns stolen from DPS troopers less worrisome than stolen laptops

I was interviewed by a local Austin TV station a couple of days ago regarding weapons, laptops, bullet-proof bests and other equipment stolen from DPS troopers. Here's the clip, for those interested:One tidbit that didn't make it into the story: I might consider this a bigger deal depending on the circumstances. For example, a gun stolen from a vehicle is one thing, guns stolen from law enforcement evidence lockers are quite another. The 22 guns stolen in 2 years from DPS strikes me as a de minimis number, with thefts of laptops, badges and other equipment probably raising more serious red flags.Via Texas Watchdog
