A few years ago an outfit called “Ceasefire Tampa Bay” had a gun buyback here. They gave away $20.00 Walmart gift certificates for each firearm that was turned in. The event was held at a Hillsborough County Sheriff’s substation right across the street from a Walmart. I turned in five broken guns and received a $100.00 worth of Walmart certificates for them. I then walked across the street to the Walmart and used the certificates to purchase a brand new Marlin Model 60 semi-auto .22 rifle. Of course I documented all of this and the Tampa Tribune published my story a day or two later. At the next buyback they only gave away Nikes.

LOL! What happened to the guns that they were broken? Did someone go after them with a sledge hammer?

“Ceasefire Tampa Bay”, “Ceasefire New Jersey”, and “Ceasefire PA” are all the same people.
