Not A Smart Move

An off-duty HOC officer gets robbed at gunpoint and the thief takes his badge and ID card. The article says he was robbed as he was leaving a tavern.

I won't go into the obvious security threats, but I do have to ask a question: Why was the guard carrying his badge and ID in a bar? It's not like he was a cop or anything, so there is no law enforcement issues to contend with.

  1. Umm, maybe because he had them in his wallet? It doesn't sound like a big deal to me.

  2. It's not like a cop's badge, Dan. Plus it is against the rules to have it on when not on duty.

    He could have left in his car, dropped it off at home, etc., etc. Now it is a major security risk.
