Gun Amnesty in Manitoba

Attention All Criminals: June is Gun Amnesty Month! From the National Post of Canada:


Police forces across Manitoba have declared a gun amnesty for the entire month of June.

RCMP and municipal forces are asking people to turn in their unwanted or illegal firearms.

Manitoba Justice Minister Gord Mackintosh says he doesn't expect hardened criminals will surrender their weapons.

But he says many law-abiding citizens may have inherited guns they do not need.

Mackintosh says those guns can sometimes be involved in accidental shootings, or be stolen by criminals.

He says the focus of the amnesty is to get guns off the street.


Yeah, but the law-abiding folks (who might foolishly turn in firearms) aren't the ones creating problems on "the street". The thugs, the mutants, the gang-bangers aren't going to show-up to collect a gift certificate to Lou's Pizzeria.

Of course, we all know that the Canadian Gun Registry has been a two-billion-dollar fiasco. Now, cops in the provinces are reduced to begging the nice people to disarm themselves. The criminals never will.

Your comments are welcome. You don't need to enter a URL and you don't need a "valid" email address, either. Note though that MT Blacklist is installed to flag suspiciously spam-like strings. Unfortunately, because of the bastard spammers, the strings "google.com" and "yahoo.com" (even in your email address) are currently banned as well. So are strings such as "cialis" (a common spam) which rules out words such as "socialism". Try putting a hyphan in a word like that.
