Just days after calling its newly hired armed security guard "a tremendous asset to the safety of our students," a Michigan school released a statement saying the retired firearms instructor had caused a "breach in security protocol" by leaving his handgun unattended in the school's bathroom. […] The school, which serves grades K through 8, insists that no students were in danger, and vowed to "continue to work on improving school security."

In the wake of the Sandy Hook murders, one Michigan K-through-8 school decided they needed better security. So how's that been working out? That's just great. Just great.
