---comments following say it all--and I see the pictured group really represent the folks who would likely partake of the "buyback" program---(sarc)

[junta]

I’m guessing about a 25% skim on this scam from that august body of theologians.

Can we buy the pastors and send them to china?

[jmaroneps37]

Do these phonies know “buy backs” have been proved to be ineffective? Do they even care? They will say anything but the truth: Lock up criminals (of whatever color) who illegally use guns.

[GeronL]

They want the city to fund their idea. Why can’t they fund their own buy-back?

The most useless days of my life were spent in Milwaukee in October 2000.

Yeah, well I’m calling for a program to teach African-American holy men to preach to their young people sermons like (for the young women): “How To Hold An Aspirin Between Your Knees” and (for the young men): “Stop Beatin’ On White Folks—You’ll Live Longer”.

The group is determined to do something about the violence, said the Rev. Mose Fuller, pastor of St. Timothy Community Baptist Church.

Hmmmm. How can they act to prevent violence? I admit, I'm stumped. Clearly they believe blaming the guns is the right choice.

Barnum was a pessimist, and underestimated his market, even taking into consideration the increase in population.

Or, public schooling is doing a better job of creating mindless idiots than in Barnum’s time.

Maybe a bit of both.

and $200 gift cards for giving up assault weapons.

What a bargain! I could trade a nice HK-93 (I KNOW it is NOT an "assault weapon", but it DOES fit what they mean by the term) for a $200 gift card, along with a Glock-23 for another $100; sell those cards at a street discount, and have enough to go to Cabela's and by a spiffy Mosin–Nagant! What a deal! What a country! What BS!

BTW, somebody needs to tell them that they can not "buy back" what they never sold in the first place!
