(Buffalo News) This was a different kind of gun buyback program.Why don't we go ahead and neuter the boys while we're at it. After all, that will cut down on aggression.
The guns being bought back from the streets weren’t 9 mm handguns or Glocks. Instead, they were Nerf guns or toy pistols.
And they weren’t being bought with cash. This time, the currency was pizza slices, notebooks and dress shirts.
The FATHERS group and Bona Pizza teamed up Monday for a buyback aimed at younger teens and preteens at the pizzeria at Bailey and Kensington avenues.
The idea was simple: Don’t let kids get used to firing weapons, even if they’re toys.
“It makes them too comfortable, holding that gun,” said Leonard Lane, president of Fathers Armed Together to Help, Educate, Restore and Save. “Then there’s no fear holding the real gun when they get older. We want to put that fear back into our children, teaching them what guns can do, how they affect their community.”
Any boy who is forced to do this by his parents should be taken away from them and placed in social services. They're clearly unfit.

Now that they've turned in all their nerf guns and squirt guns, they will have more time to stay inside, gain weight, and play the "Tea Party Zombies Must Die" video game.
