Your tax dollars at work.....Oh yeah, this will stop crime---------Bracelets made from Detroit crime scene bullet casings support gun buyback efforts

Bracelets made from Detroit crime scene bullet casings support gun buyback efforts | Crain's Detroit Business:
"Bullet casings recovered from Detroit crime scenes and local gun buyback programs are finding new life as jewelry and lighting.
Greenwich, Conn.-based Jewelry for a Cause is selling bangles, cuff bracelets and cuff links made from bullet casings obtained through the Detroit Police Department as part of its Detroit Caliber Collection.
The pieces, stamped with the serial numbers of recovered guns, are available at the Detroit Institute of Arts and The Detroit Shoppe or online.
The jewelry sells at prices ranging from $150 to $1,325, with 20 percent of the net proceeds coming back to Detroit to help fund gun buyback programs to get illegal guns off the streets.
.....Shredded guns from Detroit will be added to a large, traveling metal sculpture set to come to Detroit this spring after making its debut in Hartford's Bushnell Park in September.
Commissioned as part of the Raise the Caliber national advocacy campaign to end gun violence in America, the sculpture of two hands shaking was created from 2,000 pounds of shredded, illegal guns. "
