OK, so does anyone out there actually think that gun buy-backs cut down on the amount of gun violence? Who is going to bring in their firearm for a $25-$50 payment? I'll tell you who: Old widows who never liked their husband having a gun in the first place. (Grown) children who inherited an "evil" gun from their parents and, for reasons of principal, don't want it around the house. Not that I blame these people - everyone should be just as free to not have a firearm as to have one - I just find the idea that buybacks will somehow reduce gun crime in a substantial way absolutely ludicrous.
If anyone reading this ever wants to get rid of a firearm for $50 - let me know. If you want to get a good market price for the weapon, list it on gunbroker.com or auctionarms.com.
And I wonder where the unused portion of the $300,000 DCPD was recently given for a buyback will end up....
alright, I'll put down my fingers.
