Stupidity of our governments never ceases to amaze me...

While I understand your feelings. I would like to promote a conservative approach to your statement and amend it to simply say:

"Stupidity of our governments never ceases"

see it uses less words and is clearly accurate. LOL

Baltimore Woman Says She'll Use Gun Buyback Cash to Pay for an Even Bigger Gun

What I find most entertaining is those in charge never even consider someone gaming the system. There will always be someone thinking "how do I play this to my advantage".

Heck whenever a politician announces any program, my first thoughts are how would one manipulate that to ones best advantage. Appearantly there's never such a thought from political leaders...

I'm sure they do, they just don't care. You can't look at that table full of bent single-shot shotguns, rusted Ravens and decrepit Davisses without knowing that that you're "buyback" amounted to a garbage sell-off with taxpayers paying for the garbage... yet they keep appropriating money for them and keep doing them.

Hell, I participated in one myself... dug up a rusted-shut .22 SA revolver (like a Heritage Arms) in my yard once that lounged in the garage for several yrs for no particular reason... it was worthless.

A "buyback" scheme was announced one day and I got 50 bucks for that useless hunk of zinc, aluminium, and steel... took the family out for dinner and had enough left over for a 6-er of a nice IPA (finder's fee).
That was in St Louis in the mid 90s... another lib-run city who believes doing something is more important than accomplishing something.

Palmetto State Armory has been selling the 30 round D&H magazines for $6.99 all month. I wonder if there is a limit to the number of magazines a person can turn in?

Sell all your Promags, Triple K's and that other junk magazine maker, was it USA or American mags, I forget and get some real magazines.

Ditto. If I ever have any doubt, they always manage to take it up a notch. My day job and side business are in sectors that are heavily regulated, so I have to interface with a lot of alphabet soup at the state/territorial and federal levels, and therefore have the "pleasure" of dealing with it all the time. On that note, time to go mix up a cocktail.

I used to live in that $h!thole. So glad I'm out here now.


Meanwhile in Baltimore...
Baltimore hits 300 homicides for fourth straight year. Here's how it compares to previous years.

Baltimore's gun buyback nets Rocket Launcher(sans ammo) www.newser.com/story/269060/baltimore-held-a-gun-buyback-got-a-rocket-launcher.html

The article says that you have to be a Baltimore resident. So you need ID to get money for a gun but not to vote?

The article says that you have to be a Baltimore resident.

The poster says "All transactions remain anonymous," so how are they gonna know?

Just read that the best investment if things REALLY go south is not gold and silver,( you can't eat metal), it's guns and ammunition..which gives you the means to HAVE what you need to survive. Isn't it hilarious that the anti-2A people are standing in line at the Ceasefire-buy backs to trade their guns for gift certificates for tennis shoes at Fred Meyers. I guess that with them, they think they can run faster than 3000 FPS.

Baltimore buys back nearly 2,000 weapons from the streets

Baltimore police have collected nearly 2,000 weapons including a rocket launcher as part of a buy-back program aimed at reducing violence in the eastern US city.

A rocket launcher?

[DONOTBUGME]

Its probably a potato gun gun or soda launcher.
