If you need evidence of how concerned the District of Columbia authorities have become over the future of the district gun ban before the Supreme Court, look at what they’re doing now:
A crackdown on guns is under way in the District. Police are asking residents to submit to voluntary searches in exchange for amnesty under the District’s gun ban.
The program is starting in the Washington Highlands neighborhood of southeast Washington on Monday and will later expand to other neighborhoods. Officers will go door to door asking residents for permission to search their homes.
