I still wonder how much crime these "buybacks" create.

One of these days that will be the only excepted form of payment for groceries in kalifonya.

I can't think of anything me or my immediate family even owned that was worth less than $200 when it came to firearms. My brother's old lever action stevens .22 is worth more than that as a wall piece let alone a functioning rifle.

If there is an Automatic weapon out there it came for Mexico.

We've got to think of a new term for "buyback". It's flat wrong.

"Taxpayer-funded voluntary confiscation" doesn't really roll off the tongue, but it's more accurate. Any ideas?
