The summary report said people with $20 pieces of junk turned them in for $100 gift cards, and gun traders paid $120 or more for good or easily repaired guns that they could later re-sell for much more. All thanks to the good mayor of Seattle, who wants to do this again next month to get useless junk firearms off the street, firearms that couldn't or wouldn't be used in crimes anyway. I've heard other reports that questioned this guy's intellect. No wonder.


He was smart enough to put a D by his name in the voter's pamphlet. Nothing more needed to be done to get his name on the mayor's desk in Seattle.
