COLUMBIA, S.C. – Police in South Carolina gave away roses on Valentine's Day. All you had to do to get one for your sweetie was turn in a gun.
Hoping to get the weapons off the streets with the "Guns for Roses" program, authorities in two central South Carolina cities set up a program where anyone who turned in a gun received a free rose and a Best Buy gift card.

I already got roses today.
I think I’ll go buy some more 9mm and .45 ammo, though.

Any questions remaining about the contempt the left has for the intellect of the American public?

75 guns collected in an hour? They were all stolen. Probably from police evidence rooms.

Guns for roses? So if I bring the police one dozen roses I can get 12 guns? Cool!

A few years ago I bought a 600 round tin of WWII 45ACP. It still is in great shape, although it’s has corrosive propellant and I have to clean very soon after shooting. Bought some Wolf steelcase 45s but they don’t cycle well (ejection problems) in some of the 1911s I have - I think they scrimpted on the thickness of the eject rim.
