New Orleans Gun Confiscation Update
The Geek reports that the gun confiscations have ceased, according to someone in the know:
More on confiscations. Looks like it is over.
Some new information. Once again, can’t really say where from. Take me at my word, or don’t. Your call.
The confiscations are over about as soon as they started.
Contrary to much of the ranting posted on THR over the last 24 hours, not all cops and NG are out to kick in your door. The confiscation order from the NOPD didn’t go over real well with many of the people who would be the confiscators.
As soon as word got out, the politcal (sic) freak out was quick. Yes, the order was given. In order to disarm the independant (sic), to make them defenseless, to force them to leave. But as soon as word started to leak out, that plan was killed.
