"I personally am astounded at the overreaction of the government in response to a handfull of shootings in NO . Sending in the army in full force , confiscating guns and talking about an 'insurgency ' just because of a couple of crackpots have been firing their guns . On an average day in New York there are 10 times as many reports of shootings , yet I do n't see such a massive military response over there ..."
"Well , if they 've re-established control in New Orleans ( and it seems they have ) , then taking a gun away from someone carrying it on the street would be what the police normally do in any city . If they were taking it away from peoples ' homes , and not letting them keep them , that would be over and above what they normally do . ( I 'm very pro-2nd Amendment , so do n't get me wrong here . I 'm just pointing out that taking guns away from people happens in every city every day ) I also think that it 's kind of disingenuous to complain about the military coming in -- just a week ago everyone was criticizing the govt . for NOT sending in the military . Now people are criticizing them for doing it ? ? ?"
