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 |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
