"Law enforcement agencies from across the metro area, as well as U.S. Attorney Kenneth Polite, went door-to-door in New Orleans East on Saturday to hand out information on the penalties of gun crimes in school zones."
"The group started at Dolores T. Aaron School, and Polite was joined by the ATF, New Orleans Police Department and the Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office as part of the initiative."
"'Federal law makes it an offense to possess a firearm within a 1,000 feet of a school, so we wanted to get the word out to the community about this work,' Polite said."
"It can be a bit unnerving to open your door to find law enforcement there unannounced, but this was just a friendly reminder." ...

H/t to David Codrea who comments: Armed government workers telling citizens where they can't have guns and what they'll do if they catch them...

And I'm sure they told everybody living within 1000' of a school that their own homes were exempt from the unconstitutional 1000' rule, right?
Right?
Oh, nevermind. |

| a school popped up across the street after I moved in and real estate agent didn't know or failed to mention it....I don't live there now, but I think there could be 50 homes within a 1000 feet of that school because it's right in the middle of a subdivision |

TO REMEMBER |
| To trust arms in the hands of the people at large has, in Europe, been believed...to be an experiment fraught only with danger. Here by a long trial it has been proved to be perfectly harmless...If the government be equitable; if it be reasonable in its exactions; if proper attention be paid to the education of children in knowledge and religion, few men will be disposed to use arms, unless for their amusement, and for the defence of themselves and their country. — Timothy Dwight, Travels in New England and New York [London 1823] |
