Today my son found training rounds right in my back yard! How sweet, huh? What fool leaves any kind of ammo laying on the ground??? I dont' much care if it is training or not ... given the fact that I can tell a little bit of a difference on it. But I was still a bit upset over it, seeing I live in military housing. WTF was it doing there.
Off to the MP station I go, they varify what I already know ... take my address. That is all. What a complete waist of my time ... lucky for me it wasn't anything serious. After all, I consider that type of inconsideration to rank with idiots.
I know when things are going on that it busy, but any kind of ammo needs to be watched. And there is no reason for it to be any where near housing. I was complete shocked when my son found it ... but more blown off by how the MP's handled it. 'Oh it just this. Have a nice day.'
I did everything I could to make sure that my kids didn't tell a single person around us, put them in a zippy bag, inside my purse ... & took them to the MP station. (I know a live round & those weren't) Had I called the MP's to my house then there would have been a huge issue because the other families would have had a royal case of the ass over any one having any type of rounds/ammo that close to housing. Now had they been live -- screw them all I would have called them down there & pitched one hell of a fit.
All in all ... I guess how they USE to do things are different from how they are doing things now. Cause when I was a kid, they took a bit more serious. This time they just seemed to blow it off ...
