IRS is trying to Acquire Shotguns

[Pat McCotter]

CT makes manhole covers with inspiring inscriptions.

Taking on the issue of gun violence, 228 manhole covers with the exact weight of the 11,194 guns confiscated by Connecticut law enforcement between January 1, 1992 and July 31, 1996 were installed in front of Hartford's Wadsworth Atheneum. Accompanying these manhole covers were testimonials of Hartford residents who had been impacted by the use of these weapons.

Someone I know used to know a NH state police officer who used to take confiscated weapons to the salvage yard put them in the truck of a car watch it crushed and then shredded, Reputedly.

[Jim Johnson]

They don't crush and shred cars at the same location.  Crushing is to reduce the cost of transportation.
Depending on the type of crushing and type of car that the weapons were put in, one could recover the majority of the weapons before the car was shredded.

[Russell Kanning]

11000 guns in a few years .... wow

[Lloyd Danforth]

All the turned in guns don't make it to the cophouse.

The IRS Criminal Investigative Division agents train at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center. I saw a t-shirt there that said "IRS CID, your worst nightmare: an accountant with a badge and a gun!"

The shirt should include, following "gun," "no heart, and a willingness to kill your ass if you don't pay. Bitch."

That is specifically against state law.

Not like it matters, though.

I inferred that to be the meaning of "Reputedly".

I thought the repudiation was unclarified and attempted to do so using a short adjunct.
I hope the adjunct was useful to other readers, if not, I apologize.

What did he say?  Someone translate for us dumbed down masses.

[Pat K]

He meant F you and the horse you rode in on.
Jim is just to polite to say it.

[Lloyd Danforth]

You mean scared.

Short adjunct?  I'm guessing from the context of the conversation , he meant a
short ad junct car, like a scrapped Toyota Corolla or something that you might find at ad junct yard.  Maybe a Honda Civic?

[Jim Johnson]

The last time I was this scared, I had to choose between plain and ruffled potato chips.

But you're smart enough to not ruffle Kat.
