The legally armed citizen knew this was coming 24 hours ago. If they thought about it, they could have formed a militia in short order. The police would have thought twice about going against an organized militia. The state politicians would have to think long an hard about sending troops in to kill and evict people from their property to save themselves from disease. As it turned out, they didn't even have to divide to conquer.

Next time people, call yourself to arms. You, the middle-class petty bourgeois, are toast unless it puts up a massive front. The wealthy elite can hire a few private soldiers and pay off the bureaucrats to protect themselves and continue to steal your property.

Amen! And it amazes me to find some people here, that actually believe the non-elite don't have a right to defend themselves and their property.

It'll be interesting to see how THAT plays out.

I got one word for you: Waco.

There are other reports that they have banned groups larger than about ten. Apparently they dispersed a group trying to walk out and fired shots over their heads to disperse them. That was a group of several hundred peaceful people evacuating. They were forced back into the city and dispersed.

If you did the militia thing, you might end up a bullet-ridden 'flood victim'. Who would know?

I would guess that RKBA organizations wiil be hard pressed to find any judges in LA to get stays on these actions. And I'm not sure if going directly to a Supreme Court justice is allowed since those few cases during Vietnam.
