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.

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
