Police Chief Wants Residents To Ask For Their House To Be Searched For Guns! Is He Insane?

Police in One American City Are Asking Residents to Voluntarily Turn Over Their Guns

It’s amazing officers of the law actually believe this crazy plan will have a positive impact…

In Beloit, Wisconsin the police are asking for residents to allow them to search their homes to look for guns in an effort to curb gun violence.

Beloit has seen a rash of gun related homicides, with 7 people having been shot to death by guns in 2014.

Apparently the police there don’t understand how guns can be used for self-defense… and they definitely don’t have a firm grip on the constitution.

Instead they’re relying on the misguided advice to reduce private gun-ownership in an attempt to save people’s lives. That’s not going to work. WPR reports:

Police Chief Norm Jacobs said he doesn’t expect the phone to be ringing off the hook with requests for police to search their homes. He nevertheless hopes the program will encourage people to think about gun violence as an infectious disease like Ebola, and a home inspection like a vaccine to help build up the city’s immune system.

‘Gun violence is as serious as the Ebola virus is being represented in the media, and we should fight it using the tools that we’ve learned from our health providers,’ he said.

Jacobs said he hopes some searches will result in the discovery of guns they didn’t know were in their own homes. He said that there’s also a chance they’ll find guns linked to crimes.

‘That’s really what we’re looking for,’ he said. ‘Maybe we’ll find a toy gun that’s been altered by a youngster in the house — and we know the tragedies that can occur there on occasion.’

Maybe people will find guns in their homes they didn’t know about? What line of craziness is that?

That’s a pretty outrageous excuse to use to get people to open up their homes for a search by the police.

If anything, this is just another measure set forth by bureaucrats to make the confiscation of weapons seem a bit more reasonable… a bit more palatable.

One of the 7 murder victims’ mothers, Melissa Holloway, was able to point out the real problem in the city (and the nation at large).

She said, “Pretty much all those kids and young men just need to be is educated… You have a lot of them that barely read at a fifth-grade level yet they’re 25 year-old-men. But they know how to work a gun. There’s something wrong with that picture.”

There is something wrong with this picture.

Children are growing up in broken homes. They’re being taken care of by a nanny state government.

They’re not being taught about the constitution. Instead, they’re influenced by a culture of violence on TV and a music culture that glorifies gang-banging and abusing women.

That’s why the homicide rate is so high. And that’s especially why low-income areas lead the nation in homicide rates.

It’s the one thing liberals aren’t able to see. In their fits of rage directed at guns, they can’t see that guns aren’t the problem. They’re blind to the fact their failed social programs are what are contributing to gun violence.

Not the guns themselves.

Fortunately Republicans in the house and senate could help put an end to their lunacy.

Another thing Republicans will be able to do is put the nation back on sound economic footing.

If you wouldn’t mind adding a few more guns and more ammo to your arsenal, you should check out one of the best ways to profit in this economy.
