Same thing happened in southern Kansas 100 years ago when two factions were fighting it out over where the county seat was to be. The local sheriff decided to confiscate all guns, finally the case went to court and the court pointed out that there was such a thing as the Second Amendment to the Constitution and ordered the guns returned. By that time, many were lost, strayed or stolen by the lawmen. So the Katrina situation is not new and vigilance is necessary. But that has nothing to do with bills that are introduced without support. The Katrina matter was simply an outlaw chief of police who forgot about the Constitution.
