Every one of them would have looked at me like I had two heads if I even suggested that we sell confiscated weapons. The best we were ever allowed to do was convert the better ones to "City use" and log them in as department property before issuing them out to a member of the force that had a need... All of that ended when we finally got a very modern chief who got us really quality hardware and specified that we had to use it (Sig Sauer 229's in 40 cal, H & K Mp 5's for our SRT, etc.)...

    For those not from south Florida... to give you an idea of our local politics... my representative (I live just north of where I used to work in Broward county...) is Debby Wasserman Schultz... lucky me...
    Oh, boy. Lucky, lucky you. Former Wrestler Kane is our County Mayor as an indication of SOME of our beliefs. However the City Mayor is over the left side of the Rainbow bridge.

    There are most definitely orgs in this state who destroy them, but you can still find some sold at auction, so I should correct my earlier statement. Haven't chased down who does and doesn't. Nashville halted gun shows in the city entirely. Knoxville is moving in that direction, but it will take a while.

    It doesn't seem to be the number of attorneys so much as it is the same group as in NY, NJ, CT, MA, CA, FL. We have a Rep. Cooper here for West TN who pushes those efforts.
