"DENVER — The Denver Broncos collected 189 firearms at Empower Field
Saturday during the first of eight gun buyback events that will be
hosted this year by the team and the nonprofit RAWtools.
In an effort to reduce gun violence in the community, the Broncos
announced their partnership with the nonprofit, Denver City
Councilmember Amanda Sawyer and Aurora At-Large Councilmember Curtis
Gardner in a press release on March 3.
During the event on Saturday, attendees were also able to see how a gun
is turned into a garden tool and community voices were able to share how
their lives have been impacted by gun violence."

I thought turning guns into garden tools was a particularly
humorous touch. They could probably raise more money if the turned them
into art and sold NFTs. It would be nice to have a throne made out of
guns for Halloween--and other special events. That probably wouldn't be..........something or another enough for these folks. I dunno, maybe
not "smurfy" enough?
