"
'I shouldnt like them because they can be dangerous,' Jonathan said of guns"
The Library announced later in the day that they would also embark upon a monthlong toothpick, marbles, jumprope, Mr. Potato head, fingernail clipper, bic pen, #2 pencil, jumping jacks, silly puddy, nunchucks, bicycle, skateboard, rollerskate/rollerblade, rubberband, etc etc. buyback program in order to remove items that "can be dangerous" from our children.

We dont have any violence in our home, said Emmett Neither do I and I have a mini-arsenal in my home, but you have set yourself up nicely if you ever have a home invasion. You and your grandkids can die with a smile on your face knowing that you didn't have any of those nasty guns in your home and you were completely unable to defend yourself or your family.

One wonders,why does gramma end up raising FOUR grandkids in HER home???
Was also struck by the kids statement.
I shouldn't like guns etc. this would seem to indicate that he is only parroting what he's been told other wise he would have said,"I DON'T like guns."

"Knowing kids, they'll either use their fingers as pretend-guns ..." or chicken fingers in the cafeteria ( as happened recently) and student was suspended. Kids in my classroom make them out of paper all the time. Geez ... it's normal.

I noticed the same things too. Grandma babysitting ... kids repeating the propaganda ... I thought New Hampshire was the "Live Free or Die State?" All the leftists from Massachusetts are spilling over into my beloved Granite State!
To: 2Trievers
I think that kids are going to know the difference of between a real gun and a water one. For one thing, real guns aren't plastic, blue & see-through......

She doesnt have anything against guns. In fact, Emmett has bagged two deer since she began hunting six years ago. It's always about sex, isn't it?
To: 2Trievers
It is good that they only bought back
toy guns. Because anyone who participates in "Buy backs" of
real guns with "no questions asked" is in violation of numerous state, local, and federal laws and is guilty of felony trafficking in firearms.
Mayors, police chiefs, et al--should be held to account for this--but never seem to be.

Boris ... We'll never live long enough to see that happen ... however, wouldn't it be great if the push by pilots to carry came about as a result of the WTC? (Of course I'd like to see it extended to licensed citizens and off-duty police/military.)
Or how about "home defense" units in our local communities to replace the National Guards that have been called up? Hoping something positive about the "2A" will come out of this insanity.

Hopefully their kids will be safer, Allard said. Five water guns were ultimately exchanged in the buy-back.
I know I feel safer now that the threat of a drive-by squirting has been reduced. The streets of Manchester are safe again!
To: 2Trievers
.....O.K. we'll see just how effective this "weapons buyback" program is. Let's just see how much crime drops in Manchester after all of those deadly weapons are taken off of the street! OH MY GAWD HE'S GOT A SEMI-AUTOMATIC CAP GUN........You'll have to pry this gun from my cold peanut butter and jam stained fingers! .<<>>

Speaking of toy guns, a recent Newsweek showed a boy wearing a turban and holding what looked like a toy AK-47. Was that an airsoft pellet gun or what?

Trade all your "toys" for some .50-cal machine pistols!

and the marxist brainwashing of children continues....

"The citys contribution consisted of allowing the program to be held in the library and two police officers to give the safe gun storage demonstration"I am concerned that the city of Manchester has donated its building for a public display of religious fanaticism for gun control by the MMMs. And if these police who staged a "safe gun demonstration" where on the clock or not. (/sarcasm)
To: 2Trievers
This gun buyback is the most absurd thing I've ever heard of. I expect things like this in my home state of Massachusetts. But based on the turnout, who cares? NH is still the Live Free of Die state. I rented a Heckler & Koch MP5K-PDW in Manchester just a week ago. I highly recommend them to anyone!
