They were, read the story linked in the post. I'll bet background checks were done on every transfer of a weapon so that criminals weren't lined up to purchase them. So we took them out of the hands of criminals and put them in the hands of law abiding citizens and the City saved some taxpayer dollars, what's wrong with that?

See the link attached to the original post. It was determined that destroying the weapons was illegal.
