Guns to gardens

Just saw this on the news, chopping up guns into pieces to be melted down and remade into gardening tools.

I know some people want to get rid of old guns that might be roughed up, broken or salvage, but perfectly fine, functional guns with actual value? How do I get people to stop this insanity and donate them to me? Can we start a shelter for unloved and unwanted guns? It'll be a rehabilitation and fostering center to find them new caring and SAFE homes.

It saddens me to hear quality guns are being destroyed however I do not own them. Other than my opinion I have very little if any say in what one does with thier property.

It's a variation of Swords to Plowshares

"And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. (Isaiah 2:4)."

I would really like to see a description of their tools and equipment and to describe the processes by which they plan to :

the making of garden tools, art, jewelry, and other items

I'm sure if I asked I'd get some really lame and nonsensical answer.

What I get a kick out of... in their "about" page:

"This has been an especially helpful option of healing for people who have been directly affected by gun violence, taking something that has harmed them, and turning it into something that will help heal them and their community."

Since it wasn't the firearm that snuck out of it's holster, unbeknownst to it's owner, and shot their loved one... isn't it more befitting to have a recycling program converting criminals into garden mulch??

Just sayin.....

Yes it would but as typically rational gun owners we apply logic and common sense to idiotic and nonsensical, liberal thinking.

I found an answer to my question:

Volunteer as a Blacksmith or artist

Volunteers are needed to create life-giving tools from dismantled gun pieces. Do you have a vision for creating garden tools or art from metal? Email us at [email protected] to get in touch.

Gee, lets create a stupid idea and then ask for volunteers who have skills, possibly expensive equipment and little time on their hands to perform all the work for free.

Then he gets in his car, which may not have been designed to hurt people, but it's hurt, maimed, killed a lot of people.

I prefer people who pound shovels into rifles.

I'm seriously thinking of offering my services (welder/metal fabricator) to them, and asking them to start sending guns, parts etc. to me and well, I'll send them back a few garden tools that well, MAY be 'sort of' made from old guns and parts....

When it was on the news, it showed them at the donation site running guns through a chop saw on site. I don't think you'd get much use out of anything they'd send you.

I had to waste a few minutes watching a couple news vids on this. This one was particularly funny.

Seems like these activists never know a thing about guns or the law. They just know they're right because feelings.

They did the same thing in Britain but with knives. My guess is it's based on that. Some bs effort for them to make $ ultimately I would guess.

I hope someone collects all their garden tools and melts them down to make guns.

That's hilarious. Kinda makes me want to start a gun buyback program.
