Police shouldn't be allowed to confiscate guns from hurricane victims as they reportedly did in New Orleans, said a state lawmaker who has introduced legislation to make sure that doesn't happen in Florida...
The bill (HB 285) would amend a law that permits the governor to suspend the sale, dispensing or transportation of firearms. It would add that nothing in the law "shall be construed to authorize the seizure, taking or confiscation of firearms that are lawfully possessed."
How nice of them. People need a bill to let them know the government isn't allowed to steal their survival tools in emergencies--just when they need them the most???
A question: What the hell is this permitting the governor to suspend sales travesty about, anyway? They pulled this same act of war on the people in the LA riots (you couldn't get ammo or pick up a gun you'd gone through the mandated "cooling off" period for).
What other unalienable rights is government authorized to suspend if they come up with a good enough cover story?
