10. I can't even find a single gun nut mention of such a thing to corroborate your story.

Therefore, without some substantiation I must dismiss your supposed example. Also, even if true, I hardly think that perhaps a single isolated instance would be applicable to another cases over a decade later and more than a thousand miles away.

I just went over my posts on this issue. I did not say the Police uttered lies. I did insinuate that Police officers would follow the orders given them, up to and including not making an issue in front of the press, if a person in line turned in something which could no longer or never was able to fire a bullet. A gun buy back is a public relations event, the powers that be want to show a good image.


So you're calling the police officers tools of some vast conspiracy to deceive you about a Mother's Day gun buyback?
