The Great New Orleans Gun Grab
« on: May 26, 2008, 04:19:07 PM »
 I have been reading this book, I have not be able to put it down. It is a fascinating look at how the government really looks at the 2nd Amendment. If you ever wondered how a gun ban would be enforced here in America this tells the story about how the first "test run" of that ban went. To be honest I am not an anti-govt type, this book and the research I have been looking into about the practices that went on down there scare the hell out of me.

 People being forced to leave their homes, peoples firearms being taken in some cases destroyed on location. The way soldiers and SWAT officers stormed some peoples houses, just amazed me. I urge any gun owner in America to read this book. This was an event that needs to be looked at in great detail so that it does not happen again and Americans 4th and 2nd Amendment rights are not denied again.

 A link to the book's site and some links about what went on down there.

What is fascinating to me about all of this is that a family in Iraq is allowed to own one firearm and yet these American citizens had all of their guns taken and in some cases taken by force. It is shameful.

It would SEEM that some people are just NOW getting the picture of what our government SEEMS to INTEND for us and our rights?

People been warning us all about this for YEARS!

So what you gonna do WHEN they manage to get police and military to come to YOUR door?

They need to start hanging those who knowingly violate the constitution.  It's the only solution.

Yep, no use in incentivizing correctness.  It's more efficient to let things grow untutored (in the proper sense) and trim any and everything that doesn't randomly happen to grow toward an arbitrary standard.

Had I any sway, I'd push for court martial proceedings for all of the National Guardsmen.  I don't know about the oaths that Police take, but I'm pretty sure the Guardsmen violated theirs.

Yeah, see what those devil Democrats did to your right to bear arms in a national emergency? Too bad we did'nt have a republican president in charge of all this when it happened. A republican president would never let someone rape the constitution like that while in office. They would have had all the right answers.

Hard Times In The Big Easy
Law-abiding citizens were subject to confiscation of their firearms during the Katrina catastrophe.
By John Hay Rabb


Last August, Hurricane Katrina flattened New Orleans and cut a wide swath of destruction across several other southern states. Millions were left dead, injured, hungry or homeless. In the chaotic aftermath of the storm, New Orleans Police Superintendent P. Edwin Compass III announced that all privately owned firearms would be seized. "No one will be able to be armed. Guns will be taken," Compass declared. "Only law enforcement [will be] allowed to have weapons."



Louisiana, like many other states, issues concealed carry weapons permits to law-abiding individuals. Compass's order did not distinguish between stolen guns and legally owned guns; therefore, he was in violation of Louisiana statute.



The governor can temporarily suspend state laws, but only after a state of emergency has been declared. Under his emergency powers, the governor may specifically authorize a senior law enforcement official to confiscate legally owned firearms. To the best of my knowledge, the governor of Louisiana never authorized Superintendent Compass to confiscate legally owned firearms.

Laser, Besides' the oath to uphold the Constitution of the U.S., They also swear to obey the orders' of their superior officers. Which oath do you take to the JAG?

Nice troll. Even if the truth and the facts (see: "Landreau", and "Nagin") were nowhere to be seen. But then, we've come to expect that, considering the source. But don't let that stop you, we need the humor.

In about 6 months we'll find out what will happen with a Dem president and veto-proof majorities in House and Senate (well, maybe not House) I can't imagine it will do anything but get worse

I was under the impression that it was the duty of the Guardsmen to disregard or refuse to commit any anti-constitutional order.  This is because they will not be able to claim that they were only under orders by the time they are tried.
