They did not meet the criteria to receive a $50 Circle K gas card because their weapons were illegal, were missing parts or did not qualify for other reasons."

regulator 0 #2 December 15, 2013 No assault-style weapons of the type Moore said are becoming the weapon of choice for criminals were turned in.“It’s really for the unsecured guns,” Moore said. “We’re not thinking gangsters will turn in their guns.” Well no shit.

Boogers 0 #5 December 16, 2013 Quotea high-powered Japanese sniper rifle that had sat in his work room, gathering dust. His uncle had brought it back from World War II. Years ago, he converted it into a deer hunting rifle Arisakas are not specialized sniper rifles. They're just normal run-of-the-mill military surplus rifles. No different than any hunting rifle. The press is way too loose with the term "sniper rifle" these days. Makes it sound sinister! Good thing it's no longer sitting there gathering dust! Someone might have been hurt with it! Even though that hasn't happened in the 60 years since his uncle brought it home, I'm sure that disaster was imminent. Phew, that was a close call!

wmw999 2,148 #11 December 18, 2013 Was she raped, and the money was because of that? Wendy P.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it.

rickjump1 0 #12 December 19, 2013 wmw999Was she raped, and the money was because of that? Wendy P. I figured she got $1500 for not producing a future criminal. I have no idea If she was raped. If you think so maybe she got $1500 for identifying her assailant. . $1500 sounds kind of cheap for a rape victim. I don't think you could put a price of that. Giving people a $50 reward for having a vasectomy rather than taking their gun was meant as a joke too.Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.
