The gun buy-back program organized by Port Huron’s police department Saturday didn’t quite go as planned.
“It was successful so fast that we ran out of money, and then we had to get our own funds out of the police department,” Port Huron Police Chief Joe Platzer said about halfway through the four-hour event.
It was the first time the department hosted a gun-buyback program, where residents can bring in unwanted firearms in exchange for cash, and Platzer said they hadn’t expected such a high turnout.

TO REMEMBER |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
