FBI Is Missing Laptops and Weapons

The Washington Post says:

The FBI said that 160 laptop computers were lost or stolen in less than four years, including at least 10 that contained sensitive or classified information -- one of which held "personal identifying information on FBI personnel," according to a report released yesterday.
The bureau, which has struggled for years to improve its sloppy inventory procedures, also reported the same number of missing weapons -- 160 -- from February 2002 to September 2005. Those weapons included shotguns and submachine guns, according to the report by Justice Department Inspector General Glenn A. Fine.


Oh this is just great. The agency that taxpayers fund to prevent terrorism and investigate crimes can't even keep track of its own sensitive equipment. Does FBI stand for Federal Bureau of Idiots?

Since they're so adept at losing things, let's put their expertise to good use. Let's make the FBI responsible for losing weight in all those Americans who want to lose some.
