Turn in Guns to Buy Butter (or Other Stuff)
The NYPD is asking New Yorkers to turn in their illegal guns and they'll get $200 debit cards in return. In fact, the limit is three, so turning in a trio of illegal guns could net one $600. The AP reports that "BB guns and air pistols are worth $20." The NYPD says the exchanges are anonymous and that it has $300,000 for the program, so that's up to 1,500 guns.
