The program is called Enough is Enough. The gun buyback offers a $100 gas card instead of cash.What more can I say?
Police said such efforts make our streets and homes safer, getting guns out of homes where children can find them, and injure themselves or someone else.

A small matter, perhaps, but one of the things that has always bothered me about the term "gun buy-backs" is that the state's lackeys who administer the things aren't buying anything back. To call it a buy-back is to imply that the guns once belonged to them, and are now being returned. It's almost as if the implication is that in the natural order of things, the guns wouldn't be in private hands, and the "buy-back" is now correcting that anomaly, and restoring the natural order.
Don't cars kill many times more people than guns? How does giving away gasoline "make the streets safer"?

The only thing I could rationally come up with is maybe they're just trying to find some guns they lost. I'm sure David's got plenty of posts on that topic.
Under the feudal system didn't pretty much everything below to the king or noble only ones?
