STOP!!!!! Step back to a safe distance! If you hurt yourself, we will laugh at you.
I have always found it funny when people talk about things that they don't know about. Someone always says, I heard, or I thought, or I read it on the Internet.
Gun laws vary from state to state and policy on guns vary from one law enforcement agency to another. So it would be very hard for me to tell you how and why things are done from state to state.
I am a gun guy, or I like to think so. I was in the military. I sold guns for a while and I'm a police officer. I am the NIBIN Examiner for my department, that means I get to shoot bad guy guns.
I rewrote the policy for my department on how guns are picked up and packaged for Evidence. I also set up the way we collect evidence from firearms. I test fire all evidence firearms that are chambered in 7.62x25, 380 Auto, 9x18, 9mm, 357 Sig, 40 S&W, 45 Auto, 5.56/223 and 7.62x39. And a few others.
I handle and shoot somewhere around 800 to 900 different guns a year. My department picks up over 1600 guns a year. The guns are stored in a climate controlled room that is bigger then my house.
We do our best to not to damage firearms because we need them for our court cases. We try to return all stolen firearms. But if a gun was used in a crime are there are charges related to the gun, it can not be released until the case is adjudicated. Now if it involves a capital crime, we have to keep it for ever.
Now I have been accused of putting guns in gun jail. That's because I match guns to crimes. My friend had his gun stolen from his vehicle. My department recovered it a month later on a drug arrest. Then I matched it out attempt murder case. My friend works in the crime lab. He can not get his gun back until both cases are adjudicated. That could tak a year or two.
Now about police getting to keep all the guns they pickup. Many years ago, before my time my department allowed officer to get up to two guns a year. The guns had to be unclaimed found guns and had to be placed in evidence by the officer.
As long as I have been on we have not been able to get gun. My department destroys all guns that are not claimed and adjudicated. I could post pics of what happens to the guns but it would make you cry.
Now about the guy that the article is about. Remember who is writing it and do they have an agenda. Like most of y'all, l believe everything I see and read from our trusted media.

Wow, I am SO freakin' happy that I live in Free America where laws telling me how I will store my firearms in my own home aren't even considered by our lawmakers that value their elected jobs!!!
Guy broke the law and his guns were confiscated accordingly. Not really seeing the outrage here. Just another news story that is vaguely about firearms but not really.
