Marchers hold signs and chant in support of increased gun safety measures at the Capitol in Salt Lake City, Saturday, June 11, 2022.to legally purchase a firearm. “We are in a different century and we have different guns. I do not think the public needs the deadliest bullets. My son might be alive today if a silver hollow-point bullet wasn’t used to kill him.”
“I want lawmakers to prove that they care about their constituents’ lives,” Buchert said. “Kids, children, 10-year-olds are getting killed and lawmakers aren’t doing anything about it. I got to graduate last week, but so many kids aren’t going to ever have that opportunity.” While protesters marched just a few streets away, the Salt Lake City Police Department hosted a gun buyback Saturday afternoon for those who wanted to take their firearms out of circulation. The no-questions-asked event brought dozens of residents who received a gift card in return for their firearms.
