Can’t win for losin’ these days. Gooberment robs me of my gun, at the point of a gun, and then the robber robs me of my gift card. At the point of a gun.

Some people do have too many guns ... just not us. :)

The latest, most comprehensive academic study found gun "buybacks" are not only ineffectual in reducing homicides and/or suicides, there is an slight increase in homicides committed with guns in the two months after a "buyback".

From Page 14

Moreover, during the first two months following the gun buyback, we find that a GBP is associated with an increase in incidents of firearm-related crime. The 7.7 percent increase in gun crime we detect in column (4) is relatively modest, suggesting at most, two additional gun crimes.24

>>Yeah. If you paid 500 bucks for a gun then offer 1500 of our tax payer dollars to buy it back..<<

Lol! Right?

Every video / pic I’ve seen over the years of buybacks, crack addicted hood rats bring old crappy Saturday night specials and old rusted arms in for a nice payout.

Those who propose these steps are not afraid of criminals - who are, after all, de facto employees of the progressive movement.

They are afraid of us. That our lawfully-owned guns will some day be used to curb their excesses.

The future gun deaths they are tying to prevent are their own.

How about voluntary suicide?

If you are dead, no one can shoot you.
