New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell (D) signed a coronavirus emergency order last week allowing her to ban the sale and transportation of firearms.
She signed a follow-up proclamation on March 16, 2020, further emphasizing her emergency powers to suspend or limit the sale, dispensing, or transportation, of alcoholic beverages.
The declaration declaring the mayors power to restrict gun sales and transportation says she is empowered, if necessary, to suspend or limit the sale of alcoholic beverages, firearms, explosives, and combustibles.
On March 16, 2020, the Second Amendment Foundation responded to Cantrells claims of emergency powers over firearms by reminding her that they sued over Second Amendment infringement following Hurricane Katrina and will do so during the era of coronavirus if needed.
SAF executive vice president Alan Gottlieb said:

Not allowing the virus to purchase weapons will prevent it from forcing its way into unwitting victims?

Seriously, if you are waiting for a crisis to go out and buy your gun, youre too dumb to own one anyway...but yes its unconstitutional.

The truth: they are planning for the possibility when they institute martial law and all civil liberties are set aside for the good of the collective. They want complete and total control over the population.

HOW DARE YOU, PGalt. You’re right...sorry Greta Thor. I didn’t mean to steal your thunder. Can I at least walk around with the likeness of her severed, bloody head? With a jihadist we could find out what’s in it.
Maybe Nancy Satan. “She cut your head off and you won’t even know you are bleeding” according to her delightful spawn and the eyebrows not raised propagandists.

Sorry jihadis. She was Jihadi of the Year 2019. Not even your slaves have gotten those honors.

Because we all know that all those New Orleans murders are committed by law abiding gun owners. The mayor is a delusional douchebag. I watch the First 48 Hours show all the time and New Orleans is one of the homicide units they follow. I would say 99% of the victims and killers are young black males. Just about every murder is committed with an illegally owned firearm. The mayor's restrictions will do nothing to stop the murders in that city.

It isn’t just buying firearms... And does it include ammo? I bet it will.

And exactly when youll need to be armed the most. Hey, Mayor LaToya, the demoKKKrat mayor of New Orleans knows her base very well. And she knows you can't mix demoKKKrats, guns and alcohol. It's a riot waiting to happen.

They do this for all the things that cause problems...they confiscated weapons for Katrina and had a huge looting/violence problem...while MS LEOs didn't bat an eye (most touched the brim of their hats and nodded) when a lot of folks stated open carrying and putting up signs that the neighborhood was armed and looters might want to look for easier pickings...we also didn't have a looting or violence problem...

That is an illegal act and unenforceable.
The activity is LAWFUL, and Constitutionally protected under both the 2nd Amendment and the Commerce clause.
Further more, the sale and transportation of firearms has NO IMPACT on the spread of the virus!

When this pandemic reaches its conclusion, these buttheads either need to be tried and convicted for their actions or at the very least, tossed from office. (Off the closest tall building/s).

Gun grabbers just have to gun grab.
