Hi Neal,<br> <br> I just love the whole concept of "gun buy-backs." The term itself is fallacious. For the government to buy a gun back, they would have first had to sell the gun. Does this mean that the people behind these things are saying that it was the government that sold these guns in the first place? Does this constitute an "Oops!" where the government is admitting that it shouldn't have sold the guns to criminals in the first place?<br> <br> Of course not. No government agency sold guns (for the most part), but I think that what they're trying to do with the language is impart to the fuzzy minded liberals that guns are like your money, and that ALL guns (like your money) really belong to the government, and they're just letting you keep some of it for a little while, until they decide that they could do better things with your guns (and your money) than you can.<br> <br> Mark<br> Lee's Summit, MO
