Sixteen towns and cities in Central Massachusetts will participate in a gun buyback day Dec. 12 in honor of the victims of the Sandy Hook shooting, Mayor Joseph M. Petty announced Monday.
Part of Worcester's annual Goods for Guns program, the buyback will allow gun owners from any town to anonymously exchange their weapon for a gift card. Participating police departments include those in Worcester, Millbury, Grafton, Leicester, Southbridge, Oxford, Sturbridge, Northbridge and Webster, each of which will accept gun drop-offs. There were three drop-off sites last year.

Living proof that politicians are brain dead in many locations. Hey Worchester, you previously owned it when? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
