I have been warning the masses in these united States
that when push comes to shove, this is one of the
key plans of disarming the masses. Food for
guns. It happened in Panama, Somalia
Iraq, and Afghanistan. It will be no
different here soon.

SAN BERNARDINO: Police Collect 211 Guns in 'Guns for Groceries' - Ran Out Of Food Gift Cards and Had To Close Down
"The weapon I'm turning in came from my family. I've had it since 1969. It's just been up in my closet for years."
Officer Shaun Jarvis pushes a shopping cart full of rifles, some of the 211 guns that were collected Saturday.
San Bernardino police had such heavy turnout for their first-ever "groceries for guns" program Saturday, they ran out of food gift cards and had to close down more than two hours early.
The program allowed people to anonymously turn in weapons in exchange for $50 gift cards for Food-4-Less stores.
Several people arrived for the event at Arrowhead Credit Union Baseball Stadium even before the 9 a.m. start time, and the 200 gift cards -- from a $10,000 donation by Food-4-Less -- ran out by 12:30 p.m., Lt. Keith Prostler said. Police collected 211 weapons.

Cash said the gift card will help buy the Holiday dinner she'll be cooking for her family.
Police took all weapons that were dropped off, but there were some they were particularly happy to have out of circulation. San Bernardino City Councilman Fred Shorett, who stopped by the event, pointed to a rifle with a sawed-off stock and said, "Those can go right down those baggy pants that you see everyone wearing."
