Personally, I strongly suspect that there is somehow more to this story. Either someone has misinterpreted an order from on high, or, there are extenuating circumstances that have not been reported. Of course, I won't discount the possibility of a flawed decision from on high, either. We just don't know yet. Let's see what this turns out to be.

Could well be. As I said, if any of these folks threaten the officers or guard with their weapons, it is understandable that they would be disarmed and cuff'ed.

I will wait for more info...but stand by the statement I amde that law abiding citizens in less affected areas, who are provisioned and willing to defend their own property should be left alone to do so...in fact, they should be enlisted by the authorities to watch their own neighborhoods.

I'd like to think so too, but the fact that the BATF (as seen in pictures) is doing the house-to-house sure makes it look very suspicious to me.
