They've run this for a while. I've seen pics of some of the stuff that gets cut up.  Crazy nice stuff.

I thought about making a separate thread however since the topic has already been brought up I felt that it would be more fitting to post the article here:

"Rocket Launcher" turned in during LA's buy back program

I swear these people and the media are a bunch of idiots.  Those AT4 tubes are useless after they've been fired and can be purchased as merely decoration or props at any military surplus store.  However mad props to the genius who saw the light in getting free food, shame on the city of Los Angeles for being fooled.

^^^LA's LEO's weren't fooled.  They know a good PR moment when they see it.
