Say what you like about Iowa hicks, but at least we're trying to act just like the important folks in San Francisco and Newark and so forth.
Gas station dude in Cedar Rapids is donating $5,000 in gift cards to his station. The cops will help him trade the cards for guns. The going rate is $100 for a working long gun, $150 for a pistol. They'll even take that old Sharps with the broken main spring, but they won't pay you for it.
No questions asked, of course.
Nor information given about what will happen to the arms, so you'll forgive me for envisioning the Sharps hanging in some cop's rec room. I'd be angry about that if it weren't for knowing this little public relations gig will add immensely to the safety of the city.
