Phoenix man gives guns away to police after Vegas; receives death threats
http://www.kvoa.com/story/36537904/phoen...th-threats

A Phoenix man gave up his guns after the Las Vegas mass murders. He called the local police and told them he didn't want his guns anymore. He also posted a note on Facebook about it, which led to him receiving death threats. Here is that since deleted text.

Hello. My name is Jonathan Pring. I am a proud United States Citizen.

Until this morning I was a gun owner.

In lieu of the recent mass shooting event in Las Vegas, this morning I phoned my local police station (Phoenix, Arizona) and asked for an officer to visit my house and collect my firearms.

People on social media and in the news are asking questions and looking for answers. I have an answer. If civilians do not have guns then mass shooting events will occur less frequently.

That clever old Indian Gandhi once said “Be the change you want to see in the world”.

Small steps really can make a difference and we can all do small steps, even babies.

I will miss my guns. I enjoyed taking them to the range and doing Rambo poses in front of the mirror. I paid a lot of money for them. However, if I was to write down the 10 most important things in my life the guns wouldn’t make the list.

I hope my actions inspire others. If we can achieve a safer world for our children, we will have done a good thing.

Be the change.

To any would be home invaders, watch out. I just bought a brand new Slugger.

The pictures show Pring willingly handing over his firearms, which included a machine gun and a pistol, to a uniformed Phoenix police officer in the living room of his Phoenix home.

I think this is one of those narcissistic, "look at me!" social media things. Facebook is a cancer on society.

This.

Even if it isn't completely fake.

I'm mo betta than you, I gave a gun to a cop!

When, in the real world we would all be better off if he had turned over his car, or the extra oxycontin's sitting in the medicine cabinet.

Aaaaaand just watched the stupid "news" report.

A Euro-weenie to boot. Bog off, Chap.

Nary a pebble in the ocean... Hope he enjoys his 10 seconds of "fame".

He didn't need to own any guns anyway as his brain appears to be non-functional.

I'll be waiting for him to turn in his car, alcohol, and anything else that is far more likely to be a cause of death for anyone else in his life.

Until then, he can sit down and STFU for all I care.

Is he worried that he may go on a shooting spree one day?

I'd like to know what the police did with the guns. My bet is they auctioned them off amongst each other.

I must have missed the part in the article where he gave the guns to Obama.
