Gun buybacks are the government's way to try and circumvent the Second Amendment. By offering money -- often less than the value of the weapon -- for you to 'voluntarily' turn over your firearms, they technically aren't violating the Second Amendment. But there's always the letter of the law and the spirit of the law.

Buying back those guns implies the government gave them to you in the first place. They did not.

And while you do you, this writer will never sell her guns back to the government. They were totally lost in a boating accident, anyway.

Interesting price breakdowns. Wonder what they classify as an 'assault rifle.'

Guess not.

Who is truly the target of this performative initiative, those perpetuating violence, or merely a constituency swayed by empty political theatrics? Our friend, Dexter Taylor, a law-abiding citizen with no criminal record or history of violence, now finds himself unjustly imprisoned for exercising his constitutional Second Amendment rights. His prosecution by Letitia James’ office appears driven by political motives rather than any genuine effort to protect public safety. It is imperative for New Yorkers to hold their government accountable and reject the corrupt practices that undermine both their safety and their fundamental freedoms.

We told you about Dexter Taylor here, when a judge said the Second Amendment doesn't exist in New York and when he was sentenced to a decade in prison for nonviolent 'crime' of building his own guns.

Yeah, don't do it.

Well, isn't that lovely.

Completely on-brand for government, frankly.

We noticed that.

We all know why.

Yeah, the Second Amendment exists in court rooms even if the judges don't like it.

Which is all government is good at.

Solid advice.

Never, ever.

The government can't buy back what it never sold you in the first place.

Always, invariably, followed by tyranny.
