An Oregon gun owner went viral for having his AR-15 rifle and a handgun “destroyed” by police in the wake of the Uvalde school massacre.
Ben Beers delivered a passionate speech about changing the nation’s gun laws in a video posted on TikTok before delivering his firearms to a local police station.
“I no longer want them,” Ben Beers said in the video clip viewed by almost 200,000 users.
“I know this will not change legislation or anything to do with gun culture in America but hopefully it’ll be a form of symbolism and hopefully America can wake up because no other country has the problems that we do with gun culture and ideation and gun violence like we do.”
The weapons were given to the Hillsboro Police Department in Oregon the day after an evil gunman shot and killed 19 fourth-graders and two teachers inside Robb Elementary School in Texas.
“I was up all night, tossing and turning, crying and shaking,” Beers, a former Marine, told KGW.

Whatever Mary, maybe when it’s time to defend your family and home you remember the day you chose to be a drama queen.
God bless his soul. I know you are so proud.
My Stepfather served in the Pacific in WW2 rescuing downed pilots/crew with the Army Air Corps. PBY. Shot at Japanese strongholds on the way back to base. He is rolling in his grave, I’m sure.
Miss him dearly. Such a good man.
Never knew this Ben existed until his fat ass was posted here. Not worthy a moment of anyone’s time.
A truly great generation. Sadly, there’s not many of them left.
Who? Do I know him?
Today he chose to be a dumb ass.
Amen.
Exactly.
If every leftist did that, the gun violence rate would plummet. Violent shootings in inner cities which are Democrat strongholds, would vanish. Mass shootings, perpetrated almost exclusively by Leftists, would stop occurring.
I am all in favor of every single one of them doing just that, surrendering their firearms.
I have always hated the fact that the people most violent with guns, most untrustworthy with guns, and the least mentally and emotionally equipped to own guns have as much right to own them as I do.
But to be consistent, I have to accept that.
But if they all disarmed themselves? Wow, what a difference that would make.
“Former” Marine fits with this sh*tbird.
This is the kind of crap you get when DI’s aren’t allowed to hit recruits.
Soft, limp wristed, a$$holes.
A useful idiot.
Good for him…I encourage all liberals/Dems to turn in their guns…
Ben Beers should have returned his guns to his mommy.
Ben Beers also needs to start wearing diapers. You know... because other people crap their pants.
He needs to stop driving his car because other people crash cars into pedestrians or other drivers.
Did they verify the serial numbers match the weapons as ones he purchased? That is a good way to get rid of evidence.
Looks like Pvt. Pyle of “Full Metal Jacket”-—”What the f— is that?-— A jelly donut sir!- What is a jelly donut doing in your trunk? Sir- I was hungry sir”.....”
This a@@ clown is likely a washout “Marine” at that, and NEVER missed a jelly doughnut in his life.
Ben Beers chose to have his guns destroyed by the local police. That was his choice to make. That does not mean he gets to choose for the rest of us.
And the country is safer because you are insane and should not own firearms, vehicles, knives, or hammers…
Dumb ass!
“I was up all night, tossing and turning, crying and shaking,” Beers, a former Marine, told KGW. ...How long would this alleged former Marine last in combat without curling up into a fetal position in a foxhole?
Another sht for brains fool
