New Jersey AG: Gun buy backs will help to slow violent crime

guns.com ^ | Andrew Shepperson

[Deplorable American1776]

Hey Moronic AG, are you going to Chicongo to buy back the guns there?

[Reno89519]

Chris Christie administration. What is his next career move, beach weight?

[C210N]

What color is his sky?

Rose.

But, perhaps that is due to his glasses.

[Kickass Conservative]

Buy backs?

The people bought those Guns from the New Jersey AG?

[Covenantor]

I Can slap together about 20 or 30 these overnight...

or maybe a hundred of these now that the plans are on the internet.

[Seaplaner]

People can anonymously turn in up to three firearms with “no questions asked” and can expect to receive $100 for a rifle or shotgun, $120 for a handgun or revolver, and $200 for an assault weapon.

Now here is a prescription for success.

What self-respecting bad person, who just paid $500 for a hot gat, would not want to turn it in for $120?

But, there is an even bigger potential problem.

From what one can determine, it will be ILLEGAL for NJ peeps to transport firearms to turn them in!

This, from Handgunlaws.us, re NJ...

You can transport it fro m place of purchase to home. Home to a Certified Shooting Range. Going hunting but must have a valid hunting license. You just can’t have it in your vehicle. Again the law says you must have a FPIC or NJ Carry Permit to even transport firearms in NJ.

Someone please tell this idiot only honest people turn in guns so there will not be the slightest improvement in “gun violence.”

[Oatka]

Bracelets from the "Caliber Collection." They are made of metal from guns and bullet casings seized by the Newark Police Department.

A great way to signal your virtue.

[Redwood71]

As fast as they are getting on the street? I don’t think so. Especially when one of the suppliers of “hot weapons” is Obama’s justice department.

Cheap and easy way to get their hands on untraceable and valuable firearms.

You know darn well that not all the guns turned in make it to the shredding machine.

[Vlad The Inhaler]

It isn’t the tool you stupid leftist asshats; it’s the person committing the violence.

Excellent point.

They should have a Perp 'Buyback'.

Bring a perp in and get cash back!

• Flashers and gropers = $50.
• Illegal aliens - $100 (if no other criminal activity)
• Pickpockets, muggers, shoplifters, etc. = $200.
• Burglary, housebreaking = $250.
• Dope dealers = $300.
• Texting while driving = $400
• Politicians caught lying = $500 each offense (easy money)
• Charged with assault or beating = $1,000.
• Rape = $5,000.
• Stabbing, wounding = $10,000.
• Child molestation = $15,000
• Treason = $25,000
• Murder, killing = $50,000

[Bonemaker]

“Amazing, is it not, how profoundly wrong liberals are about absolutely everything.

Liberal arts education”

Liberal arts education + an already defective mind.

[Bonemaker]

Makes you sick to look at that doesn’t it? Same people who destroyed classic cars during Obamas cash for clunkers.

[JimRed]

How can you buy back something you never sold in the first place?

[Renegade]

‘Everybody knows the world is full of stupid people!”

The Minneapolise gun "buy back" held on 27 August, 2016 was a great success for everyone concerned.

Gun haters were able to buy 150 firearms to destroy.  It helped satisfy their urge to "do something"  symbolic and it made them feel good.  The people turning in old, cheap, broken down guns got money to upgrade to better things. Many, if not most, were Second Amendment supporters.

Gun manufacturers were able to manufacture new and better guns, and sell them to willing buyers. Private purchasers made some good deals.

The publicity was almost a draw.  Gun haters claimed guns were bad.  Second Amendment supporters showed that they were valuable and wanted.  I judge it a plus for the Second Amendment supporters.

The star of the show was the homemade shotgun made from $8 worth of pipe, some scrap wood, and tape, that brought a $100 for its owner.  The serial number was buybacksdontwork01, written in marker on the stock.

This would better be called “Tradin’ on up.”

[Steamburg]

Do you have to bring an entire perp?

[Vlad The Inhaler]

Do you have to bring an entire perp?

To all our lconcerned readers the answer is no.
You may, but it's not a requirement.

It's like varmint trapping.

You can drag them in or bring them in stuffed inside a croker sack.

Or you can just bring in a matching set of ears, the front paws and the tail.

There is also a 5% bonus if the perp turned in at the buy-back is a close family member!

And don't forget the weekend special!
No limit! - Bring in all you can catch.
