The Second Amendment Foundation quickly took the offense against New Orleans Mayor Latoya Cantrell, warning her against “suspending or limiting the sale of firearms and ammunition under her recently proclaimed State of Emergency due to Covid-19.”
On March 11, Mayor Cantrell issued a proclamation that included this language: “Subject to the provisions of Act 275 of 2006 (Regular session), the Emergency Authority is hereby empowered, if necessary to suspend, or limit the sale, dispensing, or transporting of alcoholic beverages, firearms, explosives, and combustibles.” |

| I'm betting that those who lost personal property during the govt douchebaggery that ensued during Hurricane Katrina aren't going to let it happen again. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
