Resale of Seized Guns by Cities
Unbelievable! Our cities are actually selling seized firearms! Almost all weapons seized in drug and other high-level criminal raids are weapons used, or available for use, to commit crimes and kill people.
The easy access to guns and the large quantity in the possession of undesirable and unresponsible people are responsible for the increasing number of homicides in our country. Our cities’ practice of selling these firearms places them in the same category as the hated National Rifle Assn.
