Earlier, you pretended to wonder about the gun confiscations in New

Even though you implied that the cops only took guns from thugs, the House
of Representatives thought otherwise:

"Some police officers told reporters that the confiscation order was
issued
after Army, Coast Guard and police helicopters were fired upon while
flying
over the city. It is reasonable to assume that the shooters responsible
for
these attacks used illegal firearms, which would not simply be handed over
when the police and National Guard knocked on the door.

There certainly was no shortage of guns available to criminals. In the
wake
of the storm, more than 1,000 guns were stolen from gun dealers in
Alabama,
Louisiana and Mississippi. Only about 130 of these weapons were recovered.

(The Associated Press also reported that some police officers asked if
they
could borrow guns from citizens. The officers explained that they were
outgunned during running street battles with armed criminals.)"

Sounds like neither the police nor the Guard had anything to worry about.

What bull**** left wing source did you get that from? Fortunately, the House
of Representatives didn't fall for that bull****.
