Would it be wrong to pray for the big one?
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2009/07/16000-la-guns-to-be-crushed-today-turned-into-steel-rebar.html 16,000 L.A. guns to be crushed today, turned into steel rebar 8:35 AM | July 28, 2009 Officials today will destroy 16,000 guns confiscated from criminals and collected from numerous gun buy-back programs across L.A. County. Law enforcement agencies have attempted to get guns off the street by allowing people to turn them in for gift cards. Back in March, an LAPD gun-buyback program that traded gift cards for firearms netted nearly 1,700 weapons, including 40 assault-style weapons and a rifle with a grenade launcher. The grenade launcher AR-15 rifle, which did not have a grenade in it, was delivered to the Los Angeles Police Department's Topanga station over the weekend as officers across the city distributed gift cards in exchange for handguns, rifles and shotguns. The anonymous drop-off program netted AR-15s, Uzis and AK-47s. Sheriff Lee Baca will be on hand in Rancho Cucamonga to watch the guns being crushed. They will be recycled into steel rebar. –– Shelby Grad |

Dumbshits. It is just like "Cash for Clunkers" program which is designed to increase new car production, sales and profits.
Gun manufacturers have no problem seeing the used gun supply reduced. MANUFACTURE MORE. MORE PROFIT. Thanks, you fucking commie CA politicians. |
