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 |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
