Police were not expecting the grenade and because officers had promised "no questions asked," no one was charged."I brought in thi...BOOM!
Police asked residents in the future to call ahead if they have any unusual items such as hand grenades or mortars. [More]
So in other words, these stupid gun "buybacks" actually endanger the public rather than make us safer? Of course, the same holds true for expecting people who have not had firearms training to pick up, transport and deliver guns safely. Encouraging that--without question--is tremendously dangerous and irresponsible. This, to me, is an argument we need to use more to monkeywrench these un-American little gatherings.
I also can't help but wonder how many guns were transported in an illegal manner, and whether the "no questions asked" pledge would apply if they got pulled over and had their cars searched while en route to the turn-in?
And how can local police commit that federal law won't be enforced?

ReplyDeleteLocal Law Enforcement does not enforce immigration law for the most part either!!!! The fact is local law enforcement has no obligation to enforce federal laws, thus the reason they are called local law enforcement.
