A Silly Question

Last week, there was a Gun-Buy-Back event. Almost 7,000 turn-ins were recorded, although as yet, we haven't seen a breakdown of how many BB guns as opposed to how many functional weapons were turned in. Even more telling, we haven't seen any attempt to break down how many guns came from Chicago residents as opposed to out-of-state people - we verified the sixty-six guns brought in by a Kentucky resident that cleaned out one location of $100 cards even though we fail to see how sixty-six guns of questionable functionality could possibly affect Chicago crime.

We were wondering why there had to be rain-checks handed out when J-Fed himself was publicly hoping for over 12,000 guns to be turned in. Poor planning or just playing to the media?

How much do you get for a bb gun? I'm going to start colleting them all instead of leaving them in the trunk.

Your also forgetting that there was a gentleman from southern illinois with approx 225 guns. The POs were talking about contacting ATF because he had "too many guns" what ever that means. Long story short... he walked out of there with over twenty thousand dollars of my tax money for useless single shots and rusty break tops worth 20-35 each to dealers. But thats going to reduce crime in chicago?

Research shows that gun buyt backs do nothing to reduce violence in a community. These are purely PR stunts.

I wonder how many gang bangers felt remorse and turned in their guns to clear their conscience? NONE. Only the decent people turned in their only protection from these animals. With the minimal amount of officers available to respond to calls- the sheep will have to defend themslves with sticks and knives. Good luck suckers.

I managed to get 700 dollars in cards.

I am off to Shore Galleries to buy another AR15. Get ready Mitch, here I come!

I will buy my scope when the next buyback comes up. Hurry up you libtards. I need glass for my new DPMS.

Fuck you Daley and Fr. Fagler you rotten cockroaches! Blue monkeys will fly from my ass sideways before I ever think of registering another gun in this shitty.

I got $200 for a broken down pistol, and pistol.

I am out from the burbs too.


I am going to look for more junk guns. I hope they do like NYC, and give $250 cards the next time.

How about an illegal alien turn-in? We get a hundred dollar debit card for every illegal alien we bring in.

Does it matter if the illegal immigrant is rusty and non-functional?
