"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?

How many of those guns came from the Crips, the Bloods, any drug dealer
or any other criminal enterprise or individual? This is one of the most idiotic things ever and the law abiding citizens turning them in are
just as idiotic.

LOL SO WHAT? This is just the free enterprise system at work. No one is forcing anyone to do anything. There are so few guns involved
that no one should care one way or the other. MY impression is that most
of the guns turned in at these buyback events are cheap junk and old
garbage to start with. If people are having fun why should anyone
complain? Are they hurting your "feelings"?

do whatever they choose but it's just a meaningless, symbolic act. I
would like to see the crime statistics a couple of months from now.
"A study from the National Bureau of Economic Research found gun
buybacks are "ineffective at deterring gun crime."
