Project Disarmed Neighborhoods

Project Safe Neighborhoods is training cops to spot people keeping and bearing arms. Even those minding their own business, as well as those who live in areas where the government thinks it has the authority to issue permits--and then doesn't.

From the International Association of Chiefs of Police:

"Courses offered through PSNET and other PSN related trainings:

"Characteristics of Armed Persons

"This session is designed to aid law enforcement officers in identifying persons who are unlawfully carrying concealed firearms. Based on thoughtful conclusions drawn from fundamental, common sense observations, this training will enable officers to make clear observations and distinctions of some of the more common characteristics demonstrated by individuals who carry concealed firearms. The identification of offenders carrying concealed weapons, before the weapons are used, can be essential to the prevention of violent crimes."


And guess who "fully supports" PSN?

"'The NRA and our over four million members fully support the Justice Department's Project Safe Neighborhoods,' said National Rifle Association spokeswoman Kelly Whitley. Whitley said the project, which includes the grant for additional prosecutors, was based on a similar project in Richmond, Va., where violent crime dropped 70 percent in two years."

Kelly, that's simply not true. I'm an NRA Life Member. I don't support this unconstitutional outrage.

And funny thing about Richmond: Their murder rate is climbing while national numbers decline.

"The project also is popular with gun control proponents."

What, the LaPierre Center to Prevent Gun Violence, formerly National Rifle Control, Inc., isn't considered one?

Guess who else is on the PSN bandwagon?

"'We think that Project Safe Neighborhoods is a step in the right direction,' said Amy Stilwell, spokeswoman for the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence."

See that, NRA management? "A step." As in the journey isn't completed.

Note to the Fairfax suits. Gun control doesn't work. You really ought to have faith in your own findings.

That is, assuming you're not just talking out of both sides of your mouth.

Again.
