Amnesty

Categories: Regulations

Amnesty is the forgiveness of transgressions by way of pardon. Bought guns illegally? Take 'em back and hey...we'll look the other way. Amnesty. Those 84 parking tickets? The ones by the fire hydrant? Well, if you pay just $500 today, we'll grant amnesty for all the rest. Pardoned. Moved on. Amnesthetized. Done.
