There Were Actually Two Rocket Launchers Were Turned in At LA's Gun Buyback Program
The final numbers of Los Angeles's one-day gun buyback even are in: 2037 firearms including 75 assault weapons and TWO ANTI-TANK ROCKET LAUNCHERS were traded in for supermarket gift cards—no questions asked. But ... but.... we have so many questions. The first being, who in Los Angeles had military-grade rocket launchers in their house(s)? Initial reports (like the one from The Los Angeles Times) only reported one anti-tank rocket launcher, but LA Weekly has word from an LAPD official that there were two picked up during yesterday's gun drive (and they have proof, right). CBS Los Angeles reported that the city offered Ralph's gift cards up to $100 in exchange for handguns, shotguns and rifles, and gift cards up to $200 for California classified assault weapons, so we're guessing whoever turned in the rocket launcher got the full $200.
