Sacremento Gun Buy Back Plan
Gas for guns.
They offered gift cards for $50 of gas for guns - legal or illegal - and ran out of cards the first day - LOL! Dozens of guns turned in to Sacramento Police in exchange for gift cards |
Kind of depends who is giving back the guns, law abiding citizens or other?

And, guess the "gem" in the article is that that almost instantly ran out of cards... hmm. seems to be a desirable action. It certainly will not make a dent in the 400 million guns in circulation, but it is certainly a symbol. Maybe death by a million cuts to guns... But, I doubt it. |

Not going to happen, it is just a symbol. But, symbols are good. The Flag is a symbol. It wont stop a bullet, but it is still good to have. |

An elected officials, chest puffing, do nothing/accomplish nothing action!

What it didn't tell you is that they only had 12 cards....

Makes a few politicians feel good and perhaps fools some of their constituents. |

People that are responsible gun owners and want guns, I say go for it. |

Fewer guns is better - for me. As I said, it is small to the point of insignificant. But it is a reduction. |

It would appear that anything anyone does that someone doesn't agree with is just "chest puffing". To me it was a symbolic act. Obviously no one thinks taking 134 guns off the street in a country with 400 million is circulation is going to make any difference. It was a symbol. Kind of like wearing school colors, flying the flag, marrying an arm ornament, and on and on. We are a country built on symbols. |

Funny! They aren't very bright, unless they are turning in stolen, broken or junk guns. Of course, now the gangs/criminals will have less resistance. |
Hmmm, maybe I will offer TWO gas cards for a gun turned in. :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:
