The landowners may also be victims of emminent domain. Anyone who thinks Nagin and his city government wouldn't sell out small time private property owners needs to buy this bridge in Brooklyn from me...

He's referring to the "new" landowners.

Bizarre Poll Question

You are sitting in your home with your shotgun. The city and countryside around you has been destroyed, but your homestead remains unscathed. You have enough provisions to sustain you for one full year.

The Mayor of your area has ordered a mandatory evacuation and confiscation of firearms from private citizens. The local Police arrive to enforce the order.

How do you respond?

1. Cooperate with the authorities
2. "Other"
3. Pass

I think we may be seeing the beginning of exactly that. The article states that the disarming is being done in advance of a mass forced evacuation. I think once the evac is complete we may hear that the remaing structures had to be destroyed for structural damage or "contamination". NO could become one big Kelo case. Condemn it all, pay off the landowners with federal money and divide it up among the politically connected "developers" who'll reap the lion's share of the redevelopment money (and share with their politician friends that made it all happen).
