As soon as you show me a case of gun confiscation in this country, other than W years ago taking guns away from blacks in New Orleans, then I would think you had a point. But you can not, and you do not.As I promised Nosmo King , I would acknowledge if the Washington DC protest did not become a violent event. So far today it appears that it has not and good for those attending the gathering. I still think they are going after the wrong target, but if they are not blocking vehicle and pedestrian traffic, blocking businesses or access to public buildings, etc. and not leaving a lot of trash and litter in their wake, I commend them.
Nazi rallies were well disciplined too...and they took guns away from citizens as well......
President Bush had nothing to do with gun confiscation in New Orleans. That was strictly a choice of the (Democratic) New Orleans mayor and the New Orleans police trying to stop a rash of shootings, muggings, and robberies in the aftermath of Katrina. I believe some citizens, along with the NRA, filed suit against the City for violation of their constitutional rights. Not sure what came of that lawsuit.
But that definitely is a case of gun confiscation. And I believe history shows that the confiscation didn't help the situation in New Orleans one bit.
New Orleans lost that case.
