Most were probably garbage guns anyway.
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

Learn how to recognize if your kid is a liberal and don't leave them any firearms in your will. For crying out loud.

It's sad for me to see what these suburb cities of Dallas have become......when I grew up in Oak Cliff in the 60s and 70s DeSoto was a great thriving suburb that was safe to live in and great schools to send your kids.......

It sure was and in the 80s, it had the second highest per capita income in Dallas County. Only Highland Park was higher.

Years ago I remember a group sitting outside one of these "surrenders" outbidding the local officials and buying all the guns from the surrender-ers. I'd like to see more of that.

If you watch the video, it’s a bunch of old bolt actions and pump shotguns. Presumably the point of the gun “buy back” was to remove guns from society that would be used in crime. How much crime is really being committed by thugs wielding pump shotguns and grandpa’s rusted out .30-06?
This is just another liberal PR stunt.

Pitchfork we must have chewed up the same dirt. Spent 60s and early 70s 4 blocks from Kiest Park. Folks moved us to DeSoto in 75 to avoid the bussing in Dallas. When we moved out there Tuft still ran a 200 head dairy operation on the north side. Mary Kay, Lulu Roman, Bill Deer, Deon Sanders, Spud Webb, Dez Bryant just some of the hood rats that lived out there.
Bussing never came to DeSoto, it’s hard to bus kids if there is only one high school… Its simply a matter of migration over 50 years, Oak Cliff to DeSoto, Cedar Hill, Duncanville and still going south today. Less than 5% of the people I graduated with (178) still live on the south side… It’s bad, but it ain’t south LA gangland bad. Giving back firearms for a pittance of their value for a gift card=uninformed opportunist seeking immediate gratification.
