Governor of US Virgin Islands commands NG to seize all guns and ammo

[Syriusly]

That governor should be FUCKING EXECUTED for TREASON!!!!

Treason- as in ordering something that is in the Virgin Island legal code.......

 

[Markle]

I could see it happening POST violence in N.O. but prior to the hurricane hitting? Well, he's a former cop, so he probably knows what he's about.

What happened to those who ordered the confiscation in New Orleans?

I don't know. What?

Gun-Confiscating Former New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin Sentenced to 10 Years in Federal Prison
FRIDAY, JULY 11, 2014
As we reported in October 2008, after a lengthy legal battle over the unconstitutional confiscation of lawfully owned firearms during Hurricane Katrina, the City of New Orleans agreed to settle a lawsuit initiated by NRA. A permanent injunction was issued against the city, and then-Mayor Ray Nagin. The Second Amendment Foundation assisted NRA in the legal battle against Mayor Nagin and the City of New Orleans.

Judge Carl J. Barbier presided over the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana. Judge Barbier signed the permanent injunction against the City of New Orleans. The city admitted the firearm confiscations carried out by Nagin were unconstitutional and illegal.

[Syriusly]

Again -- I'm a Katrinite. I know exactly what survival skills are required. And none of them involve firearms in the remotest way.

Don't give a shit! Keep your communist hands off the guns! I don't care if gun grabbing causes cold fusion or cures all forms of cancer. HANDS FUCKING OFF!!!

This is more proof of why we need zero restrictions on all fire arms and other weapons/explosives.

Once again for the Illiterati --- I've posted nothing about "communism" or "hands on or off" or "cancer".

I posted about the sociopathic psychology of those with no human empathy, as in the OP.
Those who can't read, well that's your problem.

again, the OP is about the governor taking firearms and ammo..

So how many firearms and ammo has the governor taken?

Nagin went to prison for bribery, corruption and money laundering charges, you idiot.

"It's raining and windy... You don't need your guns." Here we have a clear example of why the government should not have a registry of your personal arms.

Not to mention it was ratified a year after Katrina that the Nationa Guard cannot seize firearms for natural disasters.

NRA threatens lawsuit after US Virgin Islands governor orders weapons seizure

Virgin Islands Allows National Guard To Seize Guns, Ammo Ahead Of Hurricane Irma

U.S. Virgin Islands seizing guns, ammo in anticipation of Irma

NRA Threatens Lawsuit Over U.S. Virgin Islands Firearm Confiscation Order | One America News Network

The The National Rifle Association prepares for a possible legal battle as Hurricane Irma nears the U.S.

This comes in response to the governor of the U.S. Virgin Islands ordering its National Guard to seize guns, ammunition, and other weapons from its citizens ahead of Hurricane Irma.
prepares for a possible legal battle as Hurricane Irma nears the U.S.

This comes in response to the governor of the U.S. Virgin Islands ordering its National Guard to seize guns, ammunition, and other weapons from its citizens ahead of Hurricane Irma.

The NRA argues people need to be able to protect themselves during times of natural disaster.

Of course there's a statist LAND GRAB behind this as well:

Mapp signed the order Monday in preparation for Hurricane Irma. The order allows the Adjutant General of the Virgin Islands to seize private property they believe necessary to protect the islands, subject to approval by the territory’s Justice Department.

Looks like they're afraid someone's gonna shoot back if the government attempts to steal their property.

A pointless tactic...
Control freaks

 

[rightwinger]

Trade your guns for food and water

Or just keep an adequate supply of all 3.

I got a deal for you

Trade your gun for a gallon of gas

Full gas tanks, 20 extra gallons, and 200+ gallons of diesel fuel...no need to trade here, dumbass.

Don't forget the guns and ammo

Lots of it

 

[pismoe]

Typical tinfoil gun fetishist. Biggest storm ever recorded with winds of 185mph threatens to wipe out several countries, leaving people homeless, drowned and worse, they're looking at devastated infrastructure including months without electricity ..................... and what you're worried about is "protect the guns".

ASSHOLE.

Wrong fuck face, it's about letting people protect themselves from pieces of shit like you.

Trust me Hunior --- I've been through many a hurricane and the last thing in the world you need is a firearm. Although it is marginally interesting to imagine what happens when you fire a bullet into a 185mph wind.

Natural disasters are where people cooperate to help each other, not point fucking GUNS.

This is the childhood-fixated fantasy of an ASSHOLE sociopath who lives safely out of hurricane paths in his little sheltered bubble in Chicago, pissing and moaning about the lives of people with which he has zero relationship, just so he can feed his equally childish partisan hack ego on a message board because he has no life.


Fuck him and fuck you with the same dildo without even wiping it off.

And btw I changed your pretentious baby-blue text into its proper color --- shit brown.

so why does the governor want all firearms?

What makes you believe that he does want all the firearms?

Doesn't anyone bother to read any of the actual source materials?

So the Virgin Islands Code is the law for the Virgin Islands- and that law specifically provides for among other things- exactly what the governor is doing.

Not the seizing of all guns and ammo- but authorizing the National Guard to seize guns, and ammo, and explosives and incendiary material- that 'may be required' for the performance of this emergency mission.

What will this mean in practical terms?

I predict nothing- at least in terms of guns and ammo. Some property might be temporarily seized during the emergency. But the National Guard likely has all the guns and ammo it needs.

I predict in the end- not a single private citizen has his personal firearms seized under this measure- though probably some will lose their firearms for other reasons.

--------------------------- i don't know . seems to me that the INDIVIDUALS emergency mission is more important than the 'governors' emergency mission for the Village , in other words feck the governor and his paid 'national guard' men Syriusly .

I would say "people" who interfere with traffic for recreation aren't mentally competent to own firearms. You display a wanton disregard for motorists and your own safety.

Furthermore we have certain restrictions on explosives for a reason, because leftists have a penchant for throwing bombs and shit mostly.

 

[Syriusly]

Just pointing out once again- despite the hysteria of the gun nuts- there is no order to confiscate all guns- there is no command to seize all private guns.

There is an order- specifically provided for in the Virgin Islands legal code- authorizing the National Guard to seize guns (and other stuff) in order to complete their mission in the case of an emergency.

Not to take guns away from people- but if the National Guard needs them themselves.

My prediction again- is that no private guns will be 'seized' under this order.

But the NRA will certainly milk it for all its worth.

 

[Pete7469]

You do that. You'll get fresh water, dry clothes and outstanding food.

Know what you won't get?

Threatened.

I'll (or whoever) will get whatever they want. Because you and your family will be dead. Why? Because you have no way to protect them.

That is actually preferable. Bed wetters are a genetic defect. The wolves are supposed to eat them.

Not sure why you want to 'feck' the governor or the National Guard.

But I bothered to read the actual document.

Which doesn't order the National Guard to seize any guns- but it does authorize the National Guard to seize guns if it needs them to complete its mission.

Which seems incredibly unlikely that the National Guard will need anyone's .357, when they have M-16's.

------------------------- don't know Syriusly . That being said the 'governor' thinks that he has the authority to confiscate no matter what the people want or NEED . ----------------------- Anyway , best not to have a list of gunowners in the usa or the VI Syriusly .

 

[Pete7469]

Partly, but mostly it's about protecting the Constitution of the United States.

If true, one would think the governor of the Virgin Islands would have learned something from the results of the gun confiscation in New Orleans after Katrina.

Since when do bed wetting marxists "learn" anything?

You'd think that after Stalin, they might have learned but then there was Mao, The NVA, Castro, Pol Pot, Mugabee et al.

North Korea continues to be an Orwellian nightmare, but have libturds "learned anything"?

Venezuela....

Bueller....

 

[Pete7469]

Just read an article and it is in St Croix, lots of gang violence and that is primarily why he did it. But I am sure the gangs didn't turn them in.

BINGO

They never do.

 

[Pete7469]

Nagin went to prison for bribery, corruption and money laundering charges, you idiot.

Which proves he was a corrupt sociopath, like I assert all democrook political whores are.

---------------------------------------- as i try to say , think that i have said it . looks like as you point out that the 'governor' thinks that he has the AUTHORITY and i dispute that he has that 'right' Syriusly . I can see it now , things are getting bad in VI and governor decide to confiscate because he has the authority . Hey maybe he has ASSUMED the authority by law but don't they always do things by the law . Anyway what person with a brain assuming NO GUN LIST is going to obey Syriusly ??

 

[Syriusly]

Here is actual news from the Virgin Islands, rather than reports from the gun lobby echo chamber

Mapp: Break Curfew Wednesday and “You Will Be Arrested”

“If you are out after curfew and you do not have a curfew pass I am advising you now that you will be arrested. We are not going to send you along to drive back home or wherever you are going given the dangers this storm is going to possess on the territory. So whatever you need to do, get it done by 6 a.m.,” Mapp concluded. The curfew will be lifted when emergency personnel determine it is appropriate “and not when someone complains,” he added.


Oddly enough- no word about all of the gun seizures from Virgin Islanders.....

 

[hazlnut]

I think y'all should calm the fuck and wait for a legitimate news source to fact check the story -- all I see the the order is vague discretionary authority… "as needed" etc….

Okay mon… jus chill… and smoke some of dis here gange… (yeah, I know that's Jamaica mon)

The governor doesn't think he has that authority- that authority is provided to him by Virgin Island law.

What kind of person is going to disobey when the National Guard shows up at the Virgin Island Walmart and asks for all of their guns for the National Guard to use during the emergency?
