    The Houston Chronicle is running a story about the Texas Dept. of Public Safety and 81 missing guns!

    excerpt:
    AUSTIN -- During a seven-year period, the Texas Department of Public Safety has lost or had stolen 81 weapons, including 16 assault-style rifles and 29 shotguns, according to a Texas Comptroller's Office report.

    Of the 81 weapons missing, 36 were reported stolen in burglaries of DPS officers' homes and cars.
    Another four were reported stolen, but they were classified as weapons thought lost because of employee negligence.
