In the SFWIW category, L/A police in conjunction with
Ralph's grocery chain ran a program over the weekend where
turning in a weapon earned you either a $100 or $200 food
chit redeemable at Ralph's, no questions asked.

Collected around 6,000 weapons including rocket launchers,
AK47s and almost 3,000 hand guns.

They will make pretty good rebar.

The program just keeps getting bigger every year.

And year after year there are more gun sales to replace
those guns. It is a moot point. Criminals will never be
with out a supply of weapons.


More than likely they were mostly worthless guns that had no
value other than to make the citizens like Lew and Scott feel
good. I have a couple of those that are destined for the same
fate next time one of those "cash for weapons" events come
along.

More than likely they have created a gun trade business. More cheap
guns manufactured and smuggled in and sold to our government for a nice
profit.
