A police chief in Wisconsin is asking residents to volunteer to searches of their houses for guns as "gun violence is as serious as the Ebola virus". What are your thoughts?

Thanks, LTC (Join to see).
"...residents can request a visit by officers to inspect the home for any unknown guns that may be in the household."
I had to think about that sentence for a good five minutes for the stupidity to register.

Isn't it bad when something is so stupid of an idea that it takes you awhile to readjust to that level of stupidity?

I'm afraid that your "No - It's too stupid" threshold is set too high, SGT (Join to see). Sounds like a manual override was necessary in this situation.

I am a law enforcement officer and my first thought on this was...NOPE! Unknown guns in your home? That is rediculous. I believe in the 2nd amendment and would not infringe on that amendment. This could also open up to charges for other items found in plain view during the search (I say search, because that is what it is, inspection or not).

I politely invite any peace officers interested in searching my person, house, papers effects or any of my property to present me with a warrant stating the probable cause to believe a crime has been committed and "particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."
