"There was a man who could create what could not be imagined. A temple so great you questioned if it was built with human hands. A man who built an idea into the greatest force the world has ever known. A world built from a single word. I care not for the folly of man but for the end of human contention." |

Entrepreneurs! User ID: 27300110 United States 01/10/2013 06:53 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 200 firearms are turned in for $50 Safeway food cards in Tucson (probably staged the people in line) buyback program; 40 purchased in line by opportunists looking for a great deal. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 31691199 "More than 40 guns were purchased by private individuals, said former state Sen. Frank Antenori, who picked up two handguns for $175. He quipped that if one didn't work, he'll just sell it to Kozachik for a gift card at the next buyback." Classic! Buying from people in line for more than gift cards is brilliant! I could see people wanting to start a business, or even various shop owners, dropping by these events to buy up loads of them to turn around and resell them at true value. That could be some serious cash very quickly...especially in the high-demand market we've got right now. Simply Ingenious! |

Jared Loughner shot all those people IN FRONT OF A SAFEWAY, and now you will turn your guns in and GET A SAFEWAY CARD!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you say set-up, hook line and sinker? This whole gun grab has been orchestrated for YEARS and now they are throwing it right in our faces and laughing. Sorry folks but this is getting REAL close to being the last straw. |

I will, under protection of law, use lethal force if attacked. |

Or how about a homemde zip gun? For a few bucks throw some pipe together, stick an empty .22 shell in the end. You get fifty smackers for just a little work. |
