130 Guns Stolen

(San Francisco, California) A week after 130 guns were stolen from a storage facility, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms was notified. Great! So now the authorities will try to gather evidence to find out where the haul of rifles, shotguns, revolvers and pistols ended up. In related disturbing news,

The gun heist last week is the second case in six weeks involving the theft of dangerous weapons in San Mateo County. In July, 200 pounds of explosives were stolen from a supposedly secure bunker with a broken alarm system.

These two events indicate a serious breakdown in control of firearms and explosives and some sort of corrective measures need to be taken.
