I did NOT say NOBODY had weapons. I said many—particularly women— who should have had weapons, didn’t.
And I did clearly say there was a “pitched gun battle in my neighborhood, between neighbors [defending selves and property] and outsiders who came in to loot.”

Reading comprehension. It’s a skill.

NONE of my neighbors had their weapons confiscated. Although there were sporadic news reports of a few confiscations, it simply did not happen in my neighborhood, so insisting that the police and National Guard are all thugs who confiscated everybody’s weapons just is not accurate.

Where I lived, the cops were just gone, and the NG was handing out MREs, smiling and letting the neighbors take pictures of them. One of the Guardsmen was my nephew. He’s not a thug and trust me on this, he has no interest in taking away any citizen’s 2A rights, nor would he obey any order to do so.

your right, reading is a skill, that you might want to try.

I said THUG Police (and I can speak from experience having LIVED in New Orleans and surrounding parishes...how about you?)

Sorry, many people who should have had guns...DID till the Police and National Guard went door to door TAKING THEM.
Iy might not have happened in YOUR neighborhood, but it DID happen in alot of them, and I know this first hand.

As for your nephew, thank him for his service, I didn’t say the National Guard were thugs, they were just...following orders.
