Authorities are releasing few details regarding a police officer's negligent discharge of a firearm inside a Bay County high school and parents are not happy.
The incident in question happened 12:30 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 11, inside Bay City Western High and Middle School, 500 W. Midland Road in Auburn. A Bay County Sheriff's deputy who acts as the school resource officer, fired a gun inside a room. The deputy was in the room by himself. The bullet passed through at least one wall and struck a female teacher in the neck area, Michigan State Police Special 1st Lt. David Kaiser said.
The projectile did not break the teacher's skin and she was uninjured.

| As a responsible gun owner, I'm unhappy about it too. Lots of folks pushing gun rights with training an afterthought. Yes, each state can require a gun safety curriculum and provide incentives to take part. Learning safety doesn't need to infringe or be burdensome. Law enforcement sometimes can get cocky because everyone thinks they are trained to use their guns, but then shooting range safety isn't expected of them as it should be. Please, let's be responsible with our great liberty. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
