The Parkland, Fla., teacher who volunteered to carry a gun in school after the deadly Feb. 14 massacre was arrested Sunday for leaving his loaded gun in a public bathroom, the Miami Herald reported Wednesday.

Sean Simpson, a chemistry teacher at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, left his loaded Glock 9 mm in the bathroom of a Deerfield Beach Pier on Sunday, the the Herald stated stated, citing a Broward County Sheriff’s Office report.

Simpson said he left the gun by mistake and that when he went back for it, Joseph Spataro, described as a vagrant according to the sheriff's report cited by the Herald, had already found it and fired it.

Spataro was charged with firing a weapon while intoxicated and trespassing.
Simpson was arrested and charged with failing to safely store a firearm. He posted a $250 cash bond and was released, the Herald reported.

1. What could go wrong?

2. IKR?

Now arm every teacher in the country and stuff like this will be happening 10 times a day, not to mention accidental discharges that will maim and kill kids and teachers.

3. There's millions of ways for this to end horribly.

And the best thing that can happen? Don't throw more guns onto a gun problem! Because gun manufacturer profits are more important than lives, apparently.

4. I just googled police accidental discharge

and came up with: About 2,000,000 results (0.54 seconds)

These people are trained many, many hours on gun safety and have reoccurring training as well.

Way more than any teacher is going to get and yet: About 2,000,000 results (0.54 seconds)

5. The $250 Bond Will Make Him Sure To Not Do Again

These FUCKING GUN OWNERS and their "I LEFT THE GUN BY MISTAKE" BULLSHIT!

Maybe it will be a mistake when someone puts a bullet through someone due to your tiny MISTAKE.

Too bad we live in Amerika, otherwise he might lose his gun and license. But I'm sure he'll just get a stern warning, not to do it again.

Maybe let him keep his precious, and Fire him as a teacher for being a negligent Twit.
