Would a Kicks for Jordans program work in Chicago?

[I_Got_Da_Burna]

I'm just wondering...if these youths in Chicago had a chance to exchange their guns for a brand new pair of J's straight from Nike, would they do it?

They tried this program in Florida with damn good results. They recovered like over 800 guns, with 21 of them being illegal.

Kicks for Guns

I think if Nike, , and the City of Chicago partnered together for such an event, it would work for sure.

What do y'all think?

Taking guns off the streets is always a good thing but would it work for the youth that are active & aint involved in block/gang beef already though?

They should do it in or before summer time

so only 21 of those guns were illegal?

yall really want to disarm the citizens while the police are being heavily militarized?

do ya'll not know anything about Nazi Germany?

^^^Obama is demliltarizing the police, but let's keep it wunhuunned....nikkas shoot each other more than they shoot at police. police are running out here with licenses to kill and nikkas don't do shyt but kill each other with the guns they have.

obama has less than one year in office. how much demilitarizing can he really do? Where have you even read that he's taking such action?

hmm, so are you saying that those with legal guns are killing each other, or is criminal activity being practiced by those with illegal fire arms?

I don't think Nike would officially support this

 

[hoodheronova]

thatz a dope idea. What kind of jordans? I would put money behind it

 

[Vilhena]

You'll take some guns from the youth, but the ones making money won't need too. Plus you would see the influx in robberies.

Some cheap made shoes over a burna ?


I don't think the young'ins in Chicago are that retarded, instead of having n***as talk it out and see the rationale in their actions place 1 material item over another brehs ​

i guess you don't realize how easy guns are to come by in this country

people who want to have them and want to use them, will do so, no matter what laws they make, or how many they take off the streets

 

[Indiglow Meta (R$G)]

Young nikkas ain't buying hammers, they're getting passed hammers...like I got passed a few when I was young.

Set up a program to trade a gun for a job. Then all of this ish will stop.

You can't just make random statements like that with no backup evidence.

@I_Got_Da_Burna, just the thought of Kicks for Gun makes me weep

inside. Sadly, materialism renders positive turnouts in our community. That kind of

initiative would be a instant success for our misguided folks. But, you know Air Highness would never sign up for no free giveaways
