Boston’s Heralded “Buyback” Yields A Net Total Of ... One
Gun
Saturday, August 15, 2015
Illustrating the fact that so-called “gun buybacks” don’t
accomplish anything, either in Boston or anywhere
else, Beantown’s gun buyback—which Mayor Martin J. Walsh launched proclaiming that
“removing guns from our neighborhoods is at the heart of our violence
prevention”—so far this year has netted a grand
total of one gun.
In contrast, similar efforts last year in Boston yielded 410
firearms, suggesting that whatever old, broken, unwanted or worthless firearms
that widows and gun collectors had stowed away have already been sold to the
city—with significant
profits for the sellers and more red ink
for Boston—while Boston’s murder
rate rises.
Here’s a crazy idea, Boston: Instead of spending money you
don’t have ... to buy guns people don’t want ... at higher prices than they’re
worth ... to accomplish a lot of nothing, why not spend that money
on something that works—like police and prosecutions?
