<h2>Do Capitol cops who leave their guns in restrooms for children to find remember to wipe their butts?</h2>
<p><strong><em>From Roll Call</em></strong></p>
<p><strong>Updated 3:20 p.m. |</strong> <span style="font-size: 12pt;">When a member of Senate Majority Leader <a href="http://www.rollcall.com/members/202.html">Mitch McConnell</a>’s security detail left his Glock and magazine stuffed in the toilet seat cover holder of a Capitol Visitor Center bathroom stall, a CVC worker found the gun, according to a source familiar with the Jan. 29 incident and two other disturbing instances when Capitol Police left loaded firearms in problematic places.<span id="more-6761"></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><a href="https://www.the-chesapeake.com//wp-content/uploads/2015/07/U.-S.-Capitol-Police-graphic.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-8955" src="https://www.the-chesapeake.com//wp-content/uploads/2015/07/U.-S.-Capitol-Police-graphic-300x256.jpg" alt="U. S. Capitol Police graphic" width="300" height="256" /></a>A 7- or 8-year-old child visiting the Capitol with his parents found the next loaded Glock lost by a dignitary protection officer, according to the source. A member of the security detail for <a href="http://www.rollcall.com/members/379.html">John A. Boehner</a>, R-Ohio, allegedly left the firearm in the bathroom of the Speaker’s Suite on March 24.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">A third Glock was found the night of April 16 by a janitor cleaning the Capitol Police headquarters building on D Street NE. The weapon was left in plain sight, sparking additional concern about the department charged with protecting one of the world’s most important and frequently visited complexes.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">On Friday, CQ Roll Call <a href="http://blogs.rollcall.com/hill-blotter/capitol-building-bathrooms-guns-left-behind/" target="_blank">spoke with members</a> who called for a full investigation into firearms regulations. House Rules Chairman <a href="http://www.rollcall.com/members/462.html">Pete Sessions</a>, R-Texas, said he wanted Capitol Police to “retrain everyone that carries a gun.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Unlike a gun with a traditional safety, a Glock will fire if the trigger is pulled — making the young boy’s alleged discovery of a gun in Boehner’s office particularly concerning. The gun lost by McConnell’s detail was left in a CVC bathroom within the Senate office space portion of the complex, lowering the likelihood it would be found by a tourist or visitor. &#8230;.<span style="font-size: 16pt;"><em><strong><a href="http://blogs.rollcall.com/hill-blotter/capitol-police-guns-found-in-problematic-places/" target="_blank">MORE</a></strong></em></span></span></p>
