Ah, you've been to the Eddie Eagle program, too!
That's great advice if you're five. If you're the principal of the school, not so much. :-)
we had an incident where the principal of a nearby high school founda gun, picked it up,brought it to her office and called the police. in so doing she ruined the fingerprints of the criminal who had jst used it to rob a bank, ruining the case against the suspect.
you NEVER touch a gun that you find lying around. it could be loaded, and have a hair trigger.
