it does something

it does something

Or it does nothing. Seems to be all over the place about its effectiveness to curtail violent crime, works here, doesn't there.

That said, a 'no questions asked' buy back program would be most effective.

thats what they always are

anyway, they cant do 'nothing'. might not do much but they get at least a few off the street

never really liked disarming disenfranchised Black/Brown people for chump change, esp. with this program beginning not too much time after after the Panthers nem got hot
I haven't seen any definitive numbers on what this does to crime, but I can guarantee there are much much better ways to solve violence in urban communities

It attacks a symptom not the cause aka its pointless.

If the government is going to make your property illegal, they should have to pay a fair price for it.

I'd advocate the same thing for drugs, but the government could never afford to buy that much cocaine.

Oh ok.

You have to acknowledge that not every policy will not ultimately fix everything

Sometimes its about having a program in place to point to.

Better than nothing
