The City of Atlanta Police Department said the level of gun violence is concerning and are taking steps to remove illegal guns from the streets. "We have to do something about the gun violence in Atlanta," said Sergeant Warren Pickard with Atlanta Police. "As police officers it's very concerning to us the level of gun violence that is taking place in the city." Sergeant Pickard said the department has a gun reduction task force in place. "Operation Whiplash" has allowed officers to move 1,300 guns off the streets since February, said Sergeant Pickard.

Wouldn't it make the citizens of Atlanta safer if you removed the criminals that use guns from the street? |

TO REMEMBER |
Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States. — Noah Webster in "An Examination into the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution," 1787, in Paul Ford, ed., Pamphlets on the Constitution of the United States, at p. 56 (New York, 1888). |
