Disappointed that the "Goods for Guns" exchange program pulled in only 313 guns one year, one-tenth the number of the previous year's gun exchange program, New York City businessman Fernando Mateo announced that he would go on a hunger strike. Mateo stated "I'm letting people know I don't have much to give them anymore but myself. I'm going to sacrifice until they come through and they deliver the guns to the precincts."
