Liberal elected officials in liberal places do liberal things. Read up more on california or new york, I've seen dumber.

I could see this being appropriate for a parent that is not a 'gun person' and believes their kid may be involved with guns, gangs, drugs, etc. Better than mom putting away some socks and accidentally hitting a trigger.

Even if it could be intended to help parents with "out of control" violent teens, it reeks of a Trojan Horse.
It also seems to be the reverse of Hitler asking kids to turn in their parents.
Government does not solve problems. Government causes problems.

even if that were the true intention, and its not, the problem is the communication. Notifying the public that you'll perform searches at their request, as a service, is one thing. Telling them that volunteering for household searches is helping society fight a plague is something else. No idea what this idiot was thinking.

I have a few that beat this on the scale of stupidity.

"If you like you doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor!"
"This will actually reduce health premiums!"
"This law will not raise taxes!"
"What difference does all of this make now?"
"We have to pass the Bill to see what's in the Bill!"

Shall I go on?

 

[323MAR]

No need, it is hard to come up with a problem that government did not create in the first place!

 

[JHenley17]

One person has volunteered and they found one gun that he already knew about. Is this hide-and-go-find-it with guns and tax money?

Wait.. Wut? Parents should be parents, and law enforcement should be law enforcement and never the two shall mix, unless the child is that of the officer in which case see parent..

Stupidest thing I ever heard was Obammy got reelected.

 

[AK shooter]

Why don't they ever ask the criminals to turn their weapons?

 

[oleheat]

Guess they had more backlash than they expected. They have withdrawn their "generous offer".

Police encourage you to call 911 if an individuals finds an unwanted firearm at any location.

Or better yet, Call me if you find an unwanted firearm....

Not a bad idea! Orphaned guns deserve the chance to find a good home too, right??

 

[madwabbit]

What if gun guys intercepted this like they do the gas card buybacks??

we'll come search your house, and pay CASH for the guns we find.

If they want to looks good for the public, then they should just collect toys for needy kids in December, host a Thanksgiving dinner for seniors, and do an Easter egg hunt.
