We tried to get the point to you on the other thread, Jeff. Then AnnaZ got called a troll, JimRob slapped MineralMan around & the thread went to $hit.
I also pointed out on that thread at the time that it appeared that the "order" was only for people not to walk the streets armed. If that was the case, I felt it did not hinder people from protecting their property and was understandable in the emergency.
You will also note that on that thread that I indicated that if the authorities were trying to confiscate law-abiding citizen's weapons in their homes, while forcing them out of those relatively undamaged homes, that that would be beyond the pale and intolerable.
I stand by all of that.
Now, it appears from this thread that some law-abiding citizens are being disarmed and displaced from their homes, when they are well provisioned and perfectly capable of defending their own property. This is nuts and cannot be tolerated.
If that was clear to you guys on the other thread...as I indicated to Annaz, then you were ahead of the game and are commended from my perspective.
I still think there is more information to come in on this and I pray such events are not part of a general order. If they are...there is the very real chance that there will be senseless bloodshed between those enforcing such an order and law-abiding citizens who want to protect their own property.
These idiot administrators should be deputizing these people and forming them into neighborhood watches so they (the LEOs) can move on to areas where they are really needed.
