Police in Beloit, Wisconsin, are asking residents to voluntarily allow police to search their home for guns.
Police Chief Norm Jacobs states that he hopes the request will not only help people ‘think differently about gun violence,’ but he also hopes that searches will lead to the “discovery of guns they didn’t know were in their own homes.”

These police chiefs are themselves small scale politicians. He’s likely sharp enough to know that NO one is going to permit such a search.
I would guess he has a leftist leaning liberal Democrat for a mayor or city manager and he’s trying to “endear himself” to them for career advancement.
No. No. And no.
No chief. I know there are guns in my house. When I’m bored I clean them
KINDLY, Of course NOT !
No way…………….I pretty much know what is in my house. If I tell you there are guns here you need to believe I know where every one of them are placed and I don’t need you to “find ” them for me.
Ummmm…. no.
Right after I search HIS house!
You guys need to relax. This is obviously aimed at families of young gang members who want to put an end to gang violence in their neighborhoods and potentially save their child from a life in and out of prison. If you aren’t the parent of a gang member you probably know where all the guns are in your house. Some people in poorer areas probably legitimately do not know if there is one hidden in little jimmy’s closet. All this chest thumping about a perceived invasion of your privacy is stupid. Not only is it not an invasion of your privacy, you probably live thousands of miles away from Wisconsin.
Nobody is going door to door, why even make that up?
I didn’t see that in the article, but your argument does make sense, and you know I live thousands of miles from Wisconsin. My answer is still no, since I already know how many guns are in my home.
