In Waltham, the local government was beside itself over all the recent deaths due to gun violence. The local leaders decided to do a gun buyback so they discussed it among themselves and their constituency and determined that each handgun that was turned in would receive 2 ten dollar gold pieces, each rifle was worth 1 ten dollar gold piece. When Harold Tinny the local pawn dealer heard of this He figured He'd cash in the 10 pistols in his shop so he headed up there. When he approached the council's table they told him 22 ten dollar gold pieces was what He could get, but of course that included his holstered old six shooter. Harold said sure what the hell and ended up walking out with 22 $10 gold pieces.
Harold met up with some friends at the local pub and puke and they all were carrying on about how their now financially ahead, happy, and have some gold to store for a rainy day.
The next morning Harold, Fred, George and His Dog lucky were all found on the side of the trail heading out of town, each having a bullet hole in their heads. There was no gold to be found anywhere on the men.
The following week the council was shaken up when they found out the leader, who was the one who came up with the gun buyback idea, well He just up and disappeared and nobody knew what happened to Him. About a year later one of the members of that council went on vacation to a small town in Montana. When He got there He found his old council leader there, He was the owner of the local gun store and bank that He was the sole founder of. He called the bank Democracy, after all that's how He got his wealth.
