As others have pointed out on this thread, this has little to do Ma and Pa public and most to do with equipment in stores or a warehouse for temporary shelter.

Oh so it's ok to take the property of corporations - like their stockholders aren't people?

I recall stories during Katrina about cops who breaking into from new car lots and taking expensive cars. Some of these vehicles were found later in other states. I think this law will go a long way towards encouraging this practice of government officials looting businesses during emergencies.

I wonder how this law will be implemented? Will citizens be given a receipt when their property is taken? What if they aren't there? How do they prove that their property was taken by city officials? Do they have to hire a lawyer and go to court?

In Louisiana, cops were confiscating cars for minor traffic infractions and people were told they would have to pay a few thousand dollars court costs to get their car back.

And when is the "emergency" over? Is the "emergency" over in New Orleans?

This law is unnecessary and is likely to be abused. Good call by WorldNetDaily.
