Gun buy backs-ineffective and Illegal :: 07/01/2014
"Gun buy-backs are popular, but ineffective . It gives the community a false sense of hope that police departments are doing something to reduce crime when, in fact, those who possess firearms unlawfully never appear at those events.

via No way to fight crime – Letters to the Editor – MiamiHerald.com.
But they make for good press and people think you "care."
Thanks Chief Wright. The legality of gun buybacks is suspect, as well.
