I was watching some hurricane katrina videos where the police were siezing firearms from law-abiding citizens. They were approached by law enforcement special agenst it looked like, and told that they were going to search their house. They had their guns pointed at these people and just pretty much busted in, took any weapons they could find, didn't offer any kind of record for the people who lost their firearms, they just took them.
What if someone decided to defend themselves? You don't open your door and you tell the LEO's that they should get off your property because you are doing nothing illegal, in which truly you aren't. If they busted down your door and you opened fire against them, were detained and thrown in jail and brought to court, would you have a standing case for innocence? I mean what these guys did was no different than what criminals do when they take your posessions, the only difference is that they have LEO badges.
I could understand if you were doing something illegal, but what if you aren't, your just sitting at home and this happens?
Curious to know how things would be handeled...
