Surge in guns causing ammunition issues for those responsible for your safety - CBS 21 News

This could possibly slow down police departments from getting ammo in a timely fashion.

What's happened is the huge rise in ammo purchases by civilians is creating a backlog for groups like police departments who need constantly refilled stock.

on anothernote-at columbia news views and reviews-i was reading the article about the Susquehanna River and thought "why don't we have a program to turn in ALL unised drugs - prescription and over the counter" instead of flushing them or putting in the trash.......i hope someone will look into this! thank you!

what an awesome idea and i think i read somewhere that someone does that....this is something that really should be looked into. the boro could use some of that money to fund it and get it up and running!

wonder if this would be a police or boro thing....drugs are polluting this river like mad (what people throw out) hell, how stupid is this-u can recycle old used furniture, even lightbulbs, appliances, but NOT drugs that do even more harm ??? proves just what this world has come to.
