Gun Buyback

"Guns are bad, let's get them off the street."

If guns were bad then the 'good guys' wouldn't have them.  Cops and soldiers putting themselves in harms way, armed.  No, people can sometimes be bad.  Even people we thought were the good guys might be bad underneath. 

But guns?  Guns are neutral.  They have no moral will like people do.  But you can't do a people buyback, I guess.  Gun buybacks are what you do instead of something.

There's a Buy Back scheduled up here this coming weekend. $100 Gift Cards a weapon, plus tickets to the Cavs. Last weekend, someone at the Gun Show had a Jennings labeled as a "Parts Gun Only" for $50. I was SOOO tempted, but my Conscience told me "No, that's like feeding a Hippie." So I passed.

Les - Well that's the problem. Who in their right mind would want to go to a Cavs game?

I have a crappy broken gun I'd love to get $100 for!
