NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 8 - Local police officers began confiscating weapons from civilians in preparation for a forced evacuation of the last holdouts still living here, as President Bush steeled the nation for the grisly scenes of recovering the dead that will unfold in coming days.

Somewhere on the news I saw an older women who had chosen to stay in New Orleans. While they were trying to convince her to leave they took a small firearm she had in the house. With criminals still lurking around the waters of New Orleans they have to take the only means of defense from an elderly women. It must be that no one can be safe unless the only one with guns is the government and the bad guys.

    I think it is rather sad that it took people complaining to stop something that should never had happened, I am just glad that there are some out there willing to stand up and shout when a unjust situation occurs. I want to thank all those that raised their voices for what we all know is right. We all fall under the constitution of the UNITED STATES, I don’t care what color, religion, sex etc you are, we all are AMERICANS. It does say we the people, doesn’t it? And not We the select few….
