Your feel-good story of the day

Comes to us via Moonbattery and is a classic tale of using Liberal touchy-feely programs, which generally speaking serve no good purpose, to actually accomplish a good end

Finally, a feel-good story out of moonbattery-addled Chicago. Recently the city collected 5,500 guns during a buyback program, handing out $100 MasterCard gift cards for every gun ($10 for BB guns and replicas)…

Sixty of the guns and several BB guns were turned in by the Champaign-based Guns Save Life. In return, the group received $6,240 in gift cards, said John Boch, president of the group. …

Most of the money will go toward buying ammunition for an NRA youth camp in Bloomington. The rest will pay for four bolt-action rifles that will be given away to campers.

“This was rusty, non-firing junk that we turned in,” Boch said. “We are redirecting funds from people who would work against the private ownership of firearms to help introduce the next generation to shooting safely and responsibly.”

As an added bonus, this story puts a smile on my face because, upon hearing about it, the Libs behind the gun buy-back nonsense will be very very angry!
