I stand corrected. You are right. Was unsettled to discover it refers to weed.
I hope someone would be smart enough to "borrow" it.If a nice gun is on the table, do you think it actually gets destroyed.
Gramma brings down the old Gov. issue that gramps carried in the big one and gets her $50 bucks. I just have a problem thinking someone is not taking that one home with them. It has happened before. Just saying.

"Bogart" is correct.
I don't know what it refers to now, but in my young LEO days in the ghetto, it was a verb meaning to thrust yourself where you're not wanted in an aggressive manner, a la Humphrey Bogart.
You guys are aware that there are metro police that like guns? You think they weren't following this thread from the get go? You really think they weren't waiting for someone to bogard the line looking to keep them from recording sellers info? Think deeper than what has been going on here. This was a big fat set-up for dumb crooks. You know, the kind that think they have hit the lottery. Please be nice to one another. We are of differing opinions on the same facts.

Back at the temple, it meant to hog the joint rather than passing it on to the others.
*gong sounds*
While I do not know for sure, but I will bet you a dollar for a donut there were some nice firearms being bought "back" for 50 bucks.
How in the heck can someone who knows about firearms give 50 dollars to a person when they know the firearm is worth 500 dollars? That is not right.

Frankly, I hope some of the guns are being liberated.
My late father, a Cincinnati Police sergeant, took a voluntary transfer to the evidence/property room. He lasted for a few months and begged to be transferred out.
Unfortunately, not all guns associated with crime are crap. Some of them are actually '73 Winchesters, '97 Winchesters, Lugers, Colt Single Actions, and other classic/collectible/historical pieces.
Ohio law provides little wiggle room. LEO agencies may keep firearms that they can use themselves or cannibalize for parts, and all others MUST be destroyed. Part of the old man's job was to process the paperwork to destroy those firearms and it was killing him. He had to get out.
If some of them end up in some copper's gun safe that's better than the furnace or the crusher.
I'm more concerned about our tax dollars paying for the IMPD officers attending this waste of time. That is worth WAY more than the loss of a few collectors items. I weep for the citizens who had their wealth confiscated to provide security for a worthless program
Yeah $12,500 worth of taxpayer money--according to WISH TV

I'll be the first to admit, my life is not worth $9million. And I'm nowhere near the bottom of the life value chart.So at 90 guns it cost the city $138 per gun turned in. That is a success?
If you believe Georgia Tech's data that it takes 65,000 guns bought back to save a life, this is a solid $9 million per life saved not including the payment to the "donors".
