So the solution to criminals using guns is to try to get law-abiding citizens to give theirs up?
Typical.

Holy profitable buyback batman.
Savage .22LR from Walmart for $115 X10 in Idaho pays for my trip to California and a small profit.

If Perata had had a gun, the state might be plus one SUV, and perhaps less one loser criminal.

Oh this is priceless! We’ve had several gun buy back events here in MA and I gutta tell ya,,,,THEY DON’T WORK. The last event the May-a was swapping guns for gift cards to Target,,,no questions asked.....here’s how it worked,,,guns were dropped off,,,,no questions asked, person was given a gift card, don’t remember how much, maybe $200 or so,,,,,said person would then turn around and sell said gift card, get the cash, and yes, I know you will find this hard to believe, BUT, said person would then turn around and buy MORE guns with the money he got from selling the gift card...........real genius our May-a is, the brilliant Thomas mumbles Mennino.

So the solution to criminals using guns is to try to get law-abiding citizens to give theirs up? Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars.

"If Perata had had a gun, the state might be plus one SUV, and perhaps less one loser criminal."Perata actually maintains a CCW. As with most hypocrites, and being a cowardly elitist, he would deny lesser persons the very right to defend themselves that he reserves for himself and his ivory-towered peers. Being such a coward though, he probably pissed his pants rather than defend himself against a criminal aggressor.

Man, would I love to see something like this documented on video. Anyone in the Oakland area gonna try this? I think I'd opt for some Century "parts" guns rather than the Savage .22's, although I'm sure Savage will make more for WalMart to restock.
To: Beelzebubba
Holy crap! Think of the better guns you can buy after turning a sweet profit on some junk!

Savage .22LR from Walmart for $115 X10 .... 10 firearms @ buyback of $250 each = $2,500.
Cost of 10 firearms plus sales tax = $1,200.
$1,300 buys one Glock 27, two extra magazines and a fair supply of ammo.
Thank You taxpayers of Oakland for my new CC firearm.

Hey, that’s a good one.
Let’s see if I can argue this from the liberal perspective: If less sober drivers owned cars, then they wouldn’t die on the roads and accident statistics would decrease. Therefore, making it more difficult for sober drivers to get cars is the correct answer to the problem.

You can make money faster with the Texas car buy back program. Up to $3000 to help buy an up to 3 year old car.

Disarm the sheep and then blindfold them, especially when wolves are about. Talk about twisted logic. In nature this kind of thinking would result in placing you at the bottom of the food chain.

I wondered how long it would take for someone to spot this. Californians are buying the guns, not this schlub.
Democrats-facts don’t matter
-consequences don’t matter
-what counts is good intentions.

There's that liberal key word:
those of us living in Oakland feel even better about that.
