Better Way to Get “Guns” Off the Street

The NBC affiliate in Augusta, Georgia is reporting that there has been a major crackdown in drug dealers and other criminals, and the result could be big. This is the sort of “getting guns off the street” measure we like. This wasn’t a nonsensical attempt to “buyback” the guns, but rather go after the actual criminals. The news site reports:

“Dozens of drug dealers and hundreds of thousands of dollars in drugs and guns are off the streets in Aiken, Edgefield and Richmond counties. The drug sweep included officers at the local, state and federal levels.”

One arrest at a man’s house resulted in said home – which was already condemned – being raised to the ground, while he faces 30 years in prison. Kudos to the law enforcement involved in this case. This is the kind of efforts we’re happy to report about at FirearmsTruth.
