Project Safe Neighborhoods
How’s it doing? Depends who you ask:
One year after 11 law enforcement agencies increased patrols in Knoxville’s gun zone, half of the city’s gun murders still happen within a three mile radius east of downtown.
The area is part of an initiative called Project Safe Neighborhood. Police say so far, the project has been a success. However, residents say they still see crime every day. Townview Terrace was the scene of a shooting the same day as this report.
Update: David has more on Project Safe Neighborhoods.

Depends on who you ask? But NRA and Brady both agree on it.
