This also shows me that they are listening to their membership - at least on this issue.

“No one will be able to be armed. We are going to take all the weapons.”

...except from the criminals.

Better late than never. Pretty late, though.

"Today, the National Rifle Association (NRA) filed a motion ... "



The Second Amendment Foundation is helping the NRA with this (check the banglist). Or should I say, the NRA is helping the SAF. They both do good work.

There is no end to the cost it takes to undo the damage these DemonRATS have done when left to their own devices. The lawsuit will be won by the NRA. CACHINK! The cost will be born by the taxpayers.

I would be satisfied that along with the settlement, those responsible would have to suffer a public whipping.

Guys, I work for the Corps of Engineers and had to visit New Orleans District for offical business.

I went through 3 check points and had NO PROBLEMS after LOUDLY announcing that I had a Loaded Pistol on my passenger seat.

Only 1 Solider asked about the pistol and I told him Louisiana was a right to carry State, and if he wished to check this fact further - I would wait. One check point was State Troopers and they did not even blink and eye when I made my announcement.

I find it hard to believe that given the situation - any Law Enforcement Official would seize firearms from Law Abiding Citizens.

"According to The New York Times, the New Orleans superintendent of police directed that no civilians in New Orleans will be allowed to have guns and that “only law enforcement are allowed to have weapons.”"

Well, they finally admitted what we've been saying for years. "When guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns."

And that comes right out of the Outlaw Superintendent of Police in New Orlean's own mouth.

The NRA needs to find individuals to file civil-rights lawsuits against all government personnel involved in this, and push a letter-writing campaign pressing for felony criminal charges against such personnel.

To maintain a free society, the penalty for obeying an unconstitutional order must be more severe than the penalty for refusing to do so.

I think it will be interesting to see if the NO PD have kept proper records and have a WRITTEN policy of how they SHALL return the guns after the "emergency".

It's about darn time.

I agree, it's a week later than it should be. But, better late than never. Much better!

Of course y'all relize that since it was filed in Federal Court, this sets up an eventual determination of the meaning of the second amendment. Does it protect some power of the states, or a right of individual members of the group known as "the people". We know the answer of course. So apparently so does the Fifth Circuit, should the case come to them because the Eastern District (LA) court denies the motion.

I would advise anyone that has credit card debt to apply for a National Rifle Association credit card with First National Bank in Omaha. A portion of the credit card interest rate goes to fund the National Rifle Association.

We can use our debt to help fund what is left of our freedom.

If you are interested give this number a call and ask about obtaining a credit card that helps fund the National Rifle Asscociation.

One of the best moves to protect your right to bear arms you will see in your lifetime . .

Today, the National Rifle Association (NRA) filed a motion in United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana seeking a temporary restraining order to block authorities from confiscating law-abiding citizens’ firearms in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.

"ABC News quoted New Orleans’ deputy police chief, saying, “No one will be able to be armed. We are going to take all the weapons.”

Then a loud cheer erupted from hundreds of looters, burglars, robbers, rapists and killers in New Orleans.
