Awesome. They should be hitting yard sales for everything they can find to turn in to buy more stuff for the youth program. Thanks mr president! Rick

Now that's thinking out of the box.

While the city is complaining that they are abusing a program intended to make the city safer, I will also contend that junior who has been to a shooting range, been given basic firearms handling instruction and allowed to shoot in a controlled environment is less likely to abuse or misuse a firearm later in life. So, funding a junior shooting program from a gun buyback program IS making the city safer.
I don't study crime statistics and this is just my opinion but I always noticed a difference (for the better) in how juniors regarded firearms from the beginning to end of a basic course.

I disagree.....taking the money to find a youth program and then exercising some common sense by KEEPING YOUR MOUTH SHUT about it would have been a far better idea. The publicity will undoubtedly persuade the city to figure out a way to prevent this from happening again. You can't screw with city hall without coming out damaged.
