gun owner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, for whatever reason (and we don\u2019t want to speculate), the Philadelphia Sheriff\u2019s office is missing over 200 firearms, reports<a href=\"https:\/\/6abc.com\/missing-firearms-philadelphia-sheriffs-office-city-controller-sheriff-rochelle-bilal\/8074617\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"philly-sheriffs-lost-more-than-200-guns\" title=\"Philly Sheriffs Lost More Than 200 Guns\"> local media<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal addressed the matter this week, blaming the lost guns on previous administrations. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;They left us with a crazy mess as far as the sheriff&#8217;s office and it&#8217;s not just the armory,\u201d she complained. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>City Controller Rebecca Rhynhart started the investigation over a year ago after she heard rumblings that guns were disappearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rhynhart\u2019s probe discovered that the whereabouts of more than 100 duty guns was unknown, and that an additional 109 confiscated or surrendered firearms were also missing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Right now, investigators do not know where the majority of those guns ended up (Hopefully,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/mexicos-president-apologize-fast-and-furious\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"philly-sheriffs-lost-more-than-200-guns\" title=\"Philly Sheriffs Lost More Than 200 Guns\"> not in the hands of known Mexican drug cartels<\/a>). \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Our investigation did find evidence of trading at gun shops with city sheriff&#8217;s office guns,&#8221; Rhynhart said. &#8220;Very, very problematic.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, Sheriff Bilal says things will change on her watch thanks to new technology. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The armory is now secure with state-of-the-art security cameras, motion sensors,&#8221; Bilal said. &#8220;There are individually assigned entry codes to track specifically who enters and exits, at any given time, of the armory.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SEE ALSO: <a

Rates<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In other Philadelphia-<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/philadelphia-sues-state-of-pennsylvania-blames-state-government-for-rising-crime-rates\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"philly-sheriffs-lost-more-than-200-guns\" title=\"Philly Sheriffs Lost More Than 200 Guns\">related news<\/a>, last month Mayor Jim Kenney and leaders in the city council sued the Commonwealth in an effort to repeal the state\u2019s preemption law regulating firearms. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plaintiffs argued in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phila.gov\/media\/20201007121641\/Crawford-v-Commonwealth-PFR.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"philly-sheriffs-lost-more-than-200-guns\" title=\"Philly Sheriffs Lost More Than 200 Guns\">lawsuit<\/a> that current law, \u201chandcuffs local governments so that they cannot enact or enforce even simple, well-researched policies that have been repeatedly shown to save lives, while it also refuses to enact statewide gun safety laws.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The suit asks the court to declare that the state government has violated Pennsylvanians\u2019 right to life under the PA Constitution, and to vacate the Firearm Preemption Laws so that Philadelphia and other municipalities can implement whatever gun control laws they wish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBy enacting and continuing to ratify the Firearm Preemption Laws, the General Assembly has increased gun violence in these municipalities, and they have affirmatively endangered the lives, health and safety of the Individual Petitioners,\u201d the lawsuit states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps instead of targeting the state as the nexus point for its problems with gun-related violence, the city of Philadelphia should put its own house in order starting with its Sheriff\u2019s Department. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the findings of the investigation are indeed true, and those the city entrusts the most to enforce the law are instead breaking it by flipping guns to local pawn shops (and who knows who else), the city\u2019s inability to further restrict the 2A rights of law-abiding citizens is the least of its worries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-81d427ab-eadd-4810-89ba-0061fe0127f7\">***<a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/\"
