An obscure Georgia gun law is expected to get some attention in the coming session of the Georgia legislature. The law requires police agencies to sell guns confiscated in burglary and robbery cases. A bill has already been filed to repeal it.
The Atlanta Police Department has thousands of confiscated guns sitting in its property room – despite a law on the books requiring APD and other police agencies to do so.
"I think guns off the street is a good thing. Let's leave them off the street," said state Sen. Elena Parent (D-Atlanta), when asked her opinion about the law. |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
