Not the kind of guns you are probably thinking about... the article below has to do with what you might call "Citizen Radar". Read it and let me know what you think!
THE DALLES, Ore. (AP) -- Police in The Dalles, Oregon, are arming citizens -- with radar guns. Officers are lending speed guns to people who are concerned about drivers going too fast in their neighborhoods. But the radar-gun toting residents aren't taking the law into their own hands. They can't issue traffic tickets. Instead, members of the Citizen Radar Patrol Program jot down license plate numbers. Police Chief Jay Waterbury says the department will send a letter to the registered owner of the speeding car. He adds if the program prevents an accident or two, it's well worth it.

Emmy award winning anchor/reporter Holly Morris started with WTTG in December of 1998. Her specialty is "live" TV, which you can see her doing on FOX 5 Morning News. Each weekday morning, Holly reports and often interacts live from somewhere in the community either covering a breaking news story, previewing an event, or learning more about all that is available in and around the greater Washington area. Holly can also be seen anchoring FOX 5 News at Noon. Holly's work has earned her 4 regional Emmys, three of which were for "Best Live Reporting". She also has a regional Edward R. Murrow award. Prior to her career at WTTG-TV, Holly was an anchor/reporter at WKYT-TV in Lexington, Kentucky. There she won three regional Emmy's including one for best anchor and one for best feature reporter. If Holly ever gets tired of the early morning wake-up calls for FOX 5 Morning News, she can always fall back on the profession of engineering. In 1993, she graduated from Duke University with a degree in civil and environmental engineering. Holly is originally from Cincinnati, Ohio.
