As many as 40 protestors held signs and wads of cash outside New St. Paul Tabernacle Church of God in Christ in Detroit Saturday protesting a Wayne County gun buyback event.
Jerry Acker, a partner in Goodman Acker, P.C law firm, fronted $50 Meijer gift cards for each of the 200 guns collected, a cost of $10,000.
Meanwhile, gun advocates waited outside offering cash for guns the government hoped to take off the streets and out of homes.
"In many cases, they'll end up circulating back in the communities we're trying to take them out of," said Wayne County Chief of Police Operations Rafael Washington said.
One pro-gun protester was detained temporarily and cited for disorderly conduct.
Washington said he was "impeding the walkway," "becoming very vocal," and "interfering with the process."
Need I say anything about that shining example of gun rights in the video?
What's your opinion? Please leave a comment.
Only what you'd say about anyone protesting for basic rights or social justice. I mean, really, why does someone need to ride in the front of the bus or vote or oppose nuclear weapons and on and on?
ReplyDeleteI tell ya, Mike, for being such a "progressive" you're one of the most bigoted bullies I've ever encountered.

ReplyDeleteWhoa there, I thought the goal of these things is to take guns “off the streets”. Now they are saying “out of homes” too?
