The pretense of “looking for guns” gives the officers an excuse to look for anything illegal. Only a fool would take them up on the offer.

The whole of human history is littered with the corpses of those who did nothing wrong.

"This fascist loser has to be one of the dumbest *hitheads to ever be appointed police chief in the Midwest."

It's Illinois. Read The Outfit, by Gus Russo. It makes a compelling case that Illinois Leftists deserve Gauleiters like this.

Wisconsin police chief compares gun violence to Ebola, asks residents to volunteer for searches

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2014/12/09/wisconsin-police-criticized-over-voluntary-program-that-allows-police-to/?intcmp=latestnews

“Most of the calls have been negative,” Norm Jacobs, the chief of police in Beloit, told FoxNews.com.

Snip

He said police have received one call requesting a search, which he said turned up a gun the owner knew about and wanted to turn in.

“We never expected the phone to ring off the hook,” he said.

I have cameras. I never even go to the door for people I don’t already know. I certainly would not open the door for cops.

I saw the problem with the name “Jajuan”

Isn’t that from Star Wars?

[RipSawyer]

I wonder how many of these people realize that law enforcement officers have actually been know on rare occasions to...gasp...find things that were not there before the search began, sometimes their mere presence causes forbidden items to appear out of the matrix and it is hard to explain to them that it was not there just a minute ago. I think the technical term is unexpected (there is that word again) manifestation resulting from appearance of authority figures. Items suddenly manifesting in this way are hardly ever of a legally approved nature, they seem to be most often of a pharmaceutical nature but weapons and even unexplainable cash sometimes appear with no known explanation of the source. Someone needs to be about the task of determining how these things can happen.

They don’t have a “gun violence” problem...

They have a “Jajuan Logan and others like him” problem.

Looks like Beloit had a total of one murder last year. yep, gun violence is a real ebola like epidemic there all right.
