So we should definitely stick to the boycott!

If it's not a method to curb or eliminate crime, then how is it relevant that someone wants to "do something" to "reduce .... homocides"???

Dear *****:
Thank you for contacting the Kroger Co. I apologize you feel this way about our Cease Fire program. We understand that criminals will not be turning in their weapons. However, the program is not a statement to eliminate crime, but rather to prevent accidents and other such situations.
Reasons to turn in a firearm:
• Young, lively, curious children are at your home.
• Someone in your family or a friend or neighbor is suffering from depression.
• The firearm cannot be properly stored.
• The gun was left by an earlier occupant of the house.
• You can't guarantee that someone else won't get the gun.
• You want to do something to reduce the number of gun accidents, suicides, and homicides.
• You understand that a gun in the home is much more likely to kill or injure a family member or friend than it is to protect you.
• You would rather have a gift certificate than the gun.
These are the reasons we have put the Cease Fire act in place. Please visit http://www.ceasefireoregon.org/coef/turnin.html (which is our published Cease Fire movement for Oregon from 2008) for more information. I will notate your concerns and forward them to our management.
If you have any further concerns, feel free to contact us.
Sincerely,
Chris Hibbard

CUSTOMER COMMENTS:
Letting you know how disgusted I am that you are contributing funds to the horribly bad idea of a so-called "gun buyback" in Dallas, TX. These are the stupidest ideas in the history of mankind, and do absolutely nothing to curb crime rates, since ya know, the criminals don't turn in their guns (go figure). It's a feel good measure by the freedom-hating, gun-hating community that works to erode our civil rights. Making a point to steer clear of Krogers now.
Thank you
