Gun amnesty
Les:
I'd like to see what was turned in, interesting they say one was stolen, hope it was the revolver I had in a pickup many moons ago. http://journalstar.com/news/local/police-guns-rounds-of-unwanted-ammo-collected-at-gun-amnesty/article_e173297f-eaf2-527c-9d40-2b43be52e844.html

And coming soon will be a book amnesty, where people can turn in books with dangerous information safely, no questions asked. Bibles, copies of the Constitution and Declaration of Independence, and all other dangerous works are all welcome.
LPD implied that a gun being available increases the chance of someone committing suicide, but a look at the real world shows that there is no correlation between gun availability and suicide rate. LPD should know that and so should the Journal. Not putting that in the article is a lie by omission, and I would say the lie is deliberate.
In the future, anyone who has an unwanted gun or ammo contact me instead.

Japan has almost no guns and has the highest suicide rate.

Imagine if they actually had guns! The suicide rate would be 137.4%
