The Peace Lilies for guns “giveback” in South Carolina resulted in a whopping 29 old, worn out, piece-o-crap guns being turned in for a piece-o-crap flower. However, local unAmerican news media tried to make it out as a big success.
The program to convince people who had guns to give them “back” to law enforcement (as if they came from law enforcement to begin with) was lead by the United Methodist Church along with the Faith Coalition on Gun Violence. It’s interesting that some local news media did not mention that the gun confiscation was lead by Christian groups, instead calling them “non-profits”.
The overwhelming majority of guns were turned in by people who had inherited them, or were given the guns, even though they didn’t really want them. Many expressed paranoia over the Sandy Hook shooting. In other words they weak minded, easily manipulated people.
