PeaceHealth, Hewlett-Packard offices briefly evacuated
An employee in the building found out last week that one of her co-workers carries a gun to work, Vancouver Police Department spokeswoman Kim Kapp said. The employee has a concealed pistol license and is legally allowed to possess a firearm.

After hearing about the gun, the employee reported it to supervisors this week, Kapp said. As the information was forwarded to other supervisors, some mistakenly came to believe that someone was holding people hostage in a conference room.

Vancouver, Washington, not Vancouver, British Columbia.

I wonder if the permit holder still has a job.
I will never apologize for being an American.

Another case of the vapors caused by the mere presence of an inanimate object.

(Remember the restaurant where a patron had the restaurant's staff ask some law enforcement folk in uniform to leave or at least move out of their sight because the law enforcement folk made them feel "unsafe"?)

I'm disgusted/disdainful/amused all at the same time (that's actually kind of a painful stretch for me).
Where/when is this going to end?
