Well his police force did a good job of confiscating cars, TV's, and anything of value during Katrina, so I guess they are experienced in confiscating things.

I know that this isn't about actual self-defense but it does concern gun ownership.

An emergency is the time when it is most important to have a firearm handy!

How many times does N.O. have to get sunk before it is abandoned?

How can we make it happen sooner?

Guns for me, but not for thee.
The law's for y'all, but not for me.

Gimme yer guns, er I'll bust yer ass good.
I'll do that anyway, if I feel like I should.

N'awlins is a great place to be FROM. A government-dependent basket case.

What a bizarre attitude on display here by Riley. Armed citizens are a good policeman's ally, especially in tough times. I'm afraid the outcome of another attempted confiscation anywhere in our country is going to be quite different.

When I was working in Mobile we sometimes would drive over and party in the Big Easy, but we always viewed it as a "battle zone".

Kinda' like when you go to Mexico, you know the odds are against you returning without getting ripped off at least once.

Remember this next time someone wants to run a rino for office, they don't worry about the Constitution either.

What they should do is prevent the MSM from coming in after any disaster to spread their lies .... that'd be safer ....

I wonder if Chief Riley was one of those who was "confiscating" payroll checks of the non-existent New Orleans policemen.

So with cops turning the city over to armed hooligans, cops abandoning their posts, cops looting the city, cops no where to be found outside an abandoned Walmart, they are going to seize weapons from homeowners.

The last thing a cop wants, when he's looting, is to run into an armed citizen.

“During a circumstance like that, we cannot allow people to walk the street carrying guns…as law enforcement officers we will confiscate the weapon if a person is walking down the street and they may be arrested,” Riley said.

~~~~~~~~~~

If the citizen is legally licensed to carry, and has their piece properly concealed, what is he gonna do? Frisk them?

That sounds like an invitation to a lot of blue-uniformed funerals...

If I were a LEO, I would refuse to work under that idiot, Riley!

Screw the constitution.

Sort of like Mrs. Clinton saying that when she is in charge she'll have to take monies from working fools to pay for what she thinks is necessary.

Where do they come up with ignorants like these?

In an interview with WWL Radio, Riley said his officers would seize guns from people on the streets if another storm was to hit New Orleans.

“During a circumstance like that, we cannot allow people to walk the street carrying guns…as law enforcement officers we will confiscate the weapon if a person is walking down the street and they may be arrested,” Riley said.

This is pure, illegal caca. When natural disasters strike one of the most effective ways law abiding citizens prevent looting and other crimes is by openly carrying and displaying loaded arms. This creep wants to help the looters.

“God spared a lot of people in this storm, he also spared a lot of violent people who were committing violent crimes with firearms,” one ATF agent said regarding the confiscation of weapons during Katrina.

This is correct...and the logical conclusion that any sane individual would draw from it is that one had damned well be armed to protect one's self, family and property (including survival gear and supplies) from those violent, armed people.

Chief Riley said Friday that officers would not again enter people’s homes to seize weapons.

Mainly because they don't wish to be the main source of attention at the next funeral their family attends.
