This headline, "East Palo Alto police buy back guns"...
Is it just me, or does it make it sound like: the Chief of the EPA PD made the conscious decision to sell the department's guns (perhaps because of idealism). Then the next day, he awakens from his fairy-dream-slumber, realizes that police need guns (especially in East Palo Alto), and suddenly they're going around, hat-in-hand, kindly asking to get their firearms back?
Yes, that was the first thing that came to my mind, that they had either gotten the weapons stolen and were now buying them back from the maffia (ok I have a wild imagination) or that they sold them and then changed their mind.
