Racist Gun Turn-In
- A church on Chicago’s West Side is hoping gift cards will get residents to turn in guns this weekend.
Hope Community Church will give a $100 VISA gift card in exchange for a gun. If you have a BB Gun, air gun or replicas, they can also be turned in for $10 each.
No questions asked and no personal information is required.
The event will run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at 5900 West Iowa Street in the parking lot.
How come they never have these at Nativity of Our Lord in Bridgeport or All Saints Basilica?It seems racist to assume that only black people want to turn in guns.
And another article about a Gun Safety group turning in busted up guns to get over $12,000 in funds for their NRA programs.

So lame - so they are encouraging the stealing of guns for money .... nice. My wife was at Target in the burbs the other day and relays me her experience at the front desk. A nappy community member gal brought in a large cart of diaper packs (all the same and the largest boxes you can get) and boxes of baby wipes. She wanted to return them for cash or in store credit. She did not have a receipt. Woman told her the store is not accepting returns for these types of products due to Covid. Of course, nappy walks away mouthing off “motha fuckers” and stuff to the clerk. Hmmmmm ... nappy is still trying to return looted goods is my guess. Maybe same principle applies to gun returns?
Suburban & downstate gun shops love these gun turn ins.
They bring in dozens of totally worthless junk and get $100 for each.
"White-owned guns need not apply."
Hmmmmmm.....I wonder why that is, asked Timmy.
It's whoever's running the show that's the racist.
They don't think that Black people/folks should own guns.

I got four maybe six old junkers I wish I could get turned in. I would split the money and still come out ahead.
Inquiring minds want to know:
* Is someone an FFL?
* Is the person(s) giving the gift cards checking FOID's?
* Are they keeping records of the transfer for 10 years?
If not, then why aren't ALL of them going to prison for 10 yrs per firearm, 10 yrs per FOID not checked, 10 yrs for failure to keep records?
What happens to all the firearms?
I said this was gonna happen about 2 weeks. Democrat racist gun turn in... hopefully no one contract any virus weather it be hiv or covid at this this racist gun turn in.
I have a Marxist face book about I will request people peacefully protest this racist gun turn in
Groot the people (not assuming AA) don’t want to have this racist gun turn in- going on in their neighborhood. Have it downtown or on the far north side for once. Have the gun turn in with in boys town
Groot I been asking some of my Anglo neighbors if they have have any gun to turn in or SUVs that go rouge to get rid of as well... they are waiting for the local church to have a gun buy back— oh well.
How can I get you to have one of these events in my neighborhood, I am assuming these are not racist gun buy backs. I heard the racist gun buy backs are gross and not inclusive
When will BLM have a gun back? From what I have read, they have well over a billion dollars to buy some guns back, it just seems fishy they have yet to do shit for anyone
Join and support the NRA NOW. Never has it been more crucial, lest our 2nd amendment be ripped to shreds. The left and their political stooges (hello, Joe) have already signed on to confiscating our guns when they achieve total power. Believe them.
How did that church racket work out for Minister Bobby Rush?
I would like to go to 5900 w Iowa to turn in a gun but afraid I will be the victim of a armed robbery.
Might be able to pick up some bargains.

NO questions asked.
The guns get melted, unless they're "assault weapon" sinister-looking. Then they get saved and trotted out for the next big photo-op.
For every one turned in 5000 more out there. I'm sure the ones turned in are either faulty, broken or just some old ladies dead husbands gun that she doesn't want around the house.
Is 015 involved at all?
And action!!
Smoke, mirror's...
According to WGN, the Police are holding the gun buy backs at these churches
What's the difference between a toy gun and a replica gun? I'm curious if I can 3d print some replicas and get $10 each for them.
Catalytic converter thieves today at 0500hrs. 6700 N block of Oconto. Two guys on foot.
Do squirt guns qualify?
I turned in 22 revolver with no firing pin that had been stored in a cardboard box for a decade or more and collected a $100 gift card. By turning in that piece of junk, I know I helped reduce violent crime. Glory be. I feel good.
Why would you need a gift card when there's "five finger discount" already?
What bubble do these idiots live under? What air are they sucking in?
Wonder why there are "food deserts?"
Too, who is donating these cards?
White house press on defunding Po-lice:

NOT ILLINOIS. NOT LAW.
So, It’s a gun show? I’m assuming these can be resold for $150 each cash by the group Later that day.
A one day event for 4 hours, 10 am - 2pm. Who gets up that early? Last time SpecialEd claimed “hundreds of guns” were turned in at the Hope CC. How much does the turn’t in venue pocket for “expenses” again? Who came up with the Funds anyway?
No questions axed, but facial recognition monitor will be posted up at the door prescreening participants based on metrics.
Good way to dump a hot gun, or just get law abiding people to give up their 2A.
Why turn in a gun for a hondo when a gun shop is willing to give at least double or more for a quality piece (with an ID) ?
Shops are always interested in good inventory.
The more they do newsworthy events on the violent weekends the less the FakeNews notices Larri has left town again.
Good point. If anything, the South and West sides need MORE GUNS to bring order to the chaos.
CPD can offset spending by turning in all those guns confiscated from those communerty membahs KFxx won't charge...
Retired now, but I recall a gun buy back program in Cabrini by a reverend there over 20 years ago in which they were giving ca$h for any type of guns, replica's etc in any condition.
(It basically was for a Photo-Op later that day)
I spoke with a M/2 good ol' boy who drove up in his pick up truck with Indiana license plates.
He brought in a box of old, broken, rusted inoperative handguns and long rifles.
He walked out openly counting close to $600.00 in ca$h.
As he passed me by he laughed and said, "Thank you for your Chicago hospitality!"
The money is given to the city via corporate donors. The city only gives black churches the gift cards. CPD takes the guns and does not forensically exam them but trace the guns thru ATF. This is why there is a higher number of guns from Indiana. People from Indio go to these things and drop off their old guns.
I took my Dad to one at some make believe church (M.B.) on the East side last year.
He had four guns that he already had appraised and was offered $25 for all of them at a gun shop. Total pieces of shit, even worse than a rusted Lorcin.
$420 bucks later (i threw in a toy gun and a broken BB gun) that grateful old Bohemian offered to buy me a cup coffee, Thanks Daddy!
Nobody is turning in pristine, mint condition or working, used guns for $100. No way! LOL LOL.
Most Catholic Churches wouldn't be involved in a gun buyback scam.
Don't Black Preachers realize guns were used against Blacks, during Civil Rights and slavery?
Who in their right mind that lives in one of these shitty neighborhoods would give up their only means of protection.
Retired CPD, saw the post on the blog last night and since I typically miss these events decided to make the trip to the west side today. Confess I was more than a little skeptical considering past negative comments about M/2s especially from the north side showing up only to be told the event was only for the black community. I was surprised to find a totally festive atmosphere at the church. There was a music and free food being given out to people in the parking lot across the street. There was a good police presence directing those with guns down the stairs into the basement of the church. I didn’t have to provide identification and no questions were asked. A couple of cops sat at a table on one side examining each firearm to determine if it was in fact a real gun. Once verified they gave the civilians sitting at another table the ok to hand you a $100 visa gift card. Sorry for being long winded here, but I was really impressed with the simplicity of the operation. Turned in three old handguns and two rifles walked away with $500!
Stay safe!
Turned in an old Colt Python. It was sitting in my safe for decades and I didn't want it any more.

Awww. Damn. In the good ol' days there were NO questions asked. I turned in several replica guns; full-size/weight/real-looking fakes. I used the gift cards to buy ammo.

Do these guns get tested before they are destroyed ? If not its great way to get rid of a gun used in a crime
Now if only here in Texas they would pay $100 for a 'gun turnin'. I have a real junker .25 ACP (with factory box!) I'd love to cash in so I could buy more stock.

Still goes on. Look for the community service officers. They don’t know the difference between a real or a fake gun
Anyone know where the next one is?
"...Turned in an old Colt Python..."
I would have given you $150 for it.
