http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/50210746Eh, it may be a drop in the bucket but 500 guns were bought back, 200 more than they were expecting. This is a step in the right direction.

my problem with gun buy back is that we are letting the manufacturers dump even more on the street/
We need to out law sat night specials and semi automatics and assault guns.

I don't know much about guns and I don't own one, but something has got to give and these instruments of killing need to give more tightly controlled. If it's not too late.
