Gun rights organization takes aim at Charleston WV August 19, 20010

"Earlier this week, Charleston Police Chief Brent Webster announced Project Gun Safe, a multi-pronged program asking the local community to help police get guns off of the city's streets.
The program includes a gun buyback program for unwanted guns, $100 to informants who give police information that leads to an arrest for an illegal weapon and an option to allow citizens to write down the manufacturers and serial numbers of all their weapons and give the information to the police department in case the weapons are stolen, lost or turn up in a crime."

"The definition of voluntary is always going to be questionable if the guy asking you to volunteer has a gun, a badge and the power of the government behind him," said West Virginia Citizens Defense League president Keith Morgan.

Oh, well this is just tin-foil-hat stuff. Oh wait...

That being said, the young Trooper told me I "should" voluntarily register all my weapons or this would happen again... because the "system" flagged me.

I don't think it's a bad idea for me to keep a record of my serial numbers, but what possible good could come from me giving it to the police before they're stolen?

They got one thing right, this program is the work of multiple prongs.

Only the Police and Military should have multi-prongs.
