Finally, A Gun Control Group That Makes Sense
Gun control groups usually claim they want to reduce violent crime but then turn around and try to take firearms primarily from peaceful people. But there is finally a group that is targeting a major sources of violence in this country, the New York Police Department (NYPD):
An anti-police activist group calling itself "Disarm NYPD" is aiming to strip officers of their firearms and boot them from certain neighborhoods entirely.
Disarm NYPD writes on its website that its aim is "combatting police violence through direct action in NYC and beyond."
Instead of cops, the group wants to form what they call "conflict resolution bodies" made up of residents, attempting to make the police force obsolete.
OK, Disarm NYPD isn't actually a gun control group but if it manages to get the NYPD disbanded it would disarm some of the most violent gang members int he country. Not only do members of the NYPD gang have a history of violence but they are go unpunished in most cases because, well, they're an officially recognized and endorsed gang by the city government.
