\n The guns were out in East New York Saturday \u2014 and each one earned a $200 gift card at a no-questions-asked NYPD firearm buyback.<\/p>\n

With gun-violence exploding in Gotham, law enforcers are using any tools to get any deadly\u00a0 weapon off the streets.<\/p>\n

In the first two hours of the 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. event at St. Paul Community Baptist Church on Hendrix Street, about a dozen guns had been turned in, Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez told The Post. The final tally was 33.\u00a0 The NYPD last held a cash for guns event in Brooklyn in August 2016. At that time, 59 guns were surrendered in Flatbush.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s been questions asked about whether or not these make a difference. I believe they make a tremendous difference,\u201d Gonzalez said.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople want solutions. They don\u2019t want finger-pointing. This is part of a multi-pronged app<\/a>roach. We\u2019re going to get as many guns off the streets voluntarily as we can. We\u2019re going to give you a $200 gift card (bank card) if you surrender it, no questions asked.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gonzalez added that guns are \u201coften stolen during burglaries, they\u2019re used in crime, so we\u2019re hoping that we\u2019re going to get some guns off the street.\u201d<\/p>\n

Michael Thomas, a 55-year-old community activist and retired cop, was skeptical, and fired a few figurative shots at the event and the city\u2019s criminal justice system.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe buyback program is great. But until the criminal justice system and judges do their job, it\u2019s a waste of time,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the cops are taking the guns off street and the criminal system and the judges are allowing them to come right back on the street, this is going to continue \u2026 We can buy back guns, but we can\u2019t buy back lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rosa from The Bronx, who declined to give her last name, turned in a 40-year-old gun she claimed was originally meant for hunting, but never used.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want this to go into somebody\u2019s hands. I\u2019m going to move away from the state, and I don\u2019t want to take it with me,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

One man \u2014 who wanted to remain anonymous \u2014 surrendered two guns that were just \u201csitting around\u201d the house. \u201cI kind of found them. But sometimes in the hood, you keep things like that because you think you might need them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Said DA Gonzalez: \u201cTwo hundred dollars is nothing to sneeze at. Most people who are getting rid of guns are desperate to do so. This is really an incentive.\u201d<\/p>\n

The NYPD and the Brooklyn DA\u2019s Office held the buyback as shootings soar.<\/p>\n

In Brooklyn, where murders were up up 72 percent through Aug. 30, four precincts covering East Flatbush, Brownsville, East New York and Crown Heights accounted for more than 57 percent of the borough\u2019s 114 homicides and just under half of its 441 shooting incidents through Aug. 30.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
