Too bad Kennedy can't be banned, or his aquatic "automobile".
Conversely, if you want off my ping-list, let me know.
And my apologies for any redundant pings.
What they should do is add to this provision that the County Deputy can "Deputize" these gun owners to act as a security force, much like a County Militia.
In fact having a county Militia to help in times like this is an idea who's time LONG ago came and for some reason, went.
I would love to hear Senator Kennedy's twisted logic on how a law-abiding and decent citizen suddenly becomes a "threat to police and first-responders" in the event of a storm or other natural disaster. Hopefully that crackpot will retire from the Senate soon.

Ping to article on effort to prohibit gun confiscation during an emergency or natural disaster.
I know some activists here who are working to initiate such a measure on the state/local level. Yall know anything about existing local laws on the subject?
Also, let me know if you're interested, and I'll freepmail you more info on the petition.
You can't have it both ways (unless you're liberal gun grabbing neo national socialist piece of sh!t like Kennedy of course) Either, "police put their lives on the line for us every day" or they are the government's sacred bully boys who never to go in harms way. Which is it? (Hint - Think about how the Columbine swat team reacted)
So this is America if the left wins?
A common sense and historically proven way to keep those dangerous and destructive GUNS out of YOUR life. MEMBERSHIPS AVAILABLE NOW!
Details below.
Concerned about the easy availability of guns in our society?
Are you as alarmed as the United Nations and some within our own government about the "gun nuts" and other freedom wackos allowed to run loose?
Wish the government would just repeal the Second Amendment and confiscate all the guns because you believe sensible people shouldn't suffer because of some idiotic notion about some antiquated right?
While we can't take the guns away from the people, we CAN take the people (or at least SOME of them) away from their guns.
At CAMP GUNFREE, we have created an atmosphere of near-total tranquility where you and your family will experience the benefits of a GUN FREE environment.
The unique main gate at Camp GunFree.
The sign over the beautiful wrought iron gate declares: NO FIREARMS ALLOWED! Most arriving camp guests never see this view from their comfortable rail cars.
Each of our camps is a gated community designed to keep guns away from camp guests. Firmly enforced security measures ensure that these dangerous and destructive devices are kept outside. Each camp boasts 24 hour, 7 day a week sentries and state-of-the-art enclosure systems, guard dogs, trenches and surveillance equipment to absolutely GUARANTEE that no firearms enter the facility. Rigidly controlled access ensures that no guns will ever be smuggled in.
No cost has been spared to ensure that Camp GunFree remains gun free.
All camp members are given distinctive uniforms to distinguish them from any gun-toting barbarians who might attempt to evade our security measures. Each camp member is also assigned a distinctive ID number to ensure that only the right people are allowed within the camp.
Camp Director, Oberstfurher Koch, and his crack staff are here to see to your COMPLETE safety from dangerous firearms.
Spacious and comfortable sleeping accommodations are a hallmark of Camp GunFree. Room and board are provided to each member in exchange for rewarding tasks designed to provide a sense of accomplishment and to demonstrate that large numbers of people CAN exist even if for a short time -- in a gun violence free community.
Camp members engaged in one of our many fun-filled organized play activities.
Current headlines prompt us to remind you that there has NEVER been a shooting by a student in any of the camp schools and we can GUARANTEE that there never will be!!

If the reports from NO have any accuracy whatsoever, it was the first-responders (the thugs) who put the population at risk. When there is no phone service, people cannot rely on calling 911 for protection (even when the phones are working, 357 beats 911 almost every time). Disarm the looters? Absolutely. Disarm grandma sitting on her front porch? Insanity.
You know what I'm sick of?
I'm sick of the Senator calling himself 'Ted', and 'Teddy'. The SOBs name is freakin' EDWARD!!!
He continues to besmirch the name of Teds and Teddys everywhere!

Like many early horror stories about ultra-violent New Orleans natives, whether in their home city or in far-flung temporary shelters, the A.P. article turned out to be false. Evacuation from the city of New Orleans was never halted, according to officials from the Coast Guard, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), and the Louisiana National Guard. The only helicopter airlifts stopped were those by a single private company, Acadian Ambulance, from a single location: the Superdome. And Acadian officials, who had one of the only functional communications systems in all of New Orleans during those first days, were taking every opportunity to lobby for a massive military response.

Guess what genius! Any scum wad that would shoot at a first responder isn't going to give a tinker's damn about your moronic gun confiscation law. What a schmuck!
First, I challenge his assumption, that police and other first responders will be endangered by this, but even if it were true, so what? Does it make more sense to endanger the first responders to keep the citizens safe or endanger the citizens to keep the first responders safe??? After all, the jobs are dangerous by definition, their JOB is to keep us safe at their own risk.
Dear Ted:
If we could trust you to uphold the constitution, such measures wouldn't be necessary. Unfortunately, we can't, and we don't and never will trust you and your ilk.
Sincerely,
Locked and Loaded NRA Member
You know gun control's a losing issue among Dims when die-hard Rats such as Feingold & Obama voted in favor of this.
'Old Lard Butt', Teddy Kennedy has his head so far up his posterior orifice, that he needs to go see a surgeon to implant some eyeholes by his belly button (so he can see out).
