The video you will see on this web site is horrifying. The
crimes committed against law-abiding gun owners are beyond
comprehension. The arrogance of anti-gun politicians and
government officials and their hate of freedom will churn your
stomach.
The law is the law, the Constitution is the Constitution. If ONE
local mayor or police chief can decide what the Second Amendment
means, it opens the door to tyranny—where ANY mayor or police
chief can say what the Second Amendment means.
You've seen this brand of abuse of freedom in the history
books—in the pages about days of gun confiscations leading to
the terror of Stalin, Mao and Hitler. But you'd never in a
million years think it could happen in America.
Well, it can and it did. And it will happen again unless we take
action today.
New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin, Police Superintendent P. Eddie
Compass unleashed a wave of confiscations with these chilling
words:
"No one will be able to be armed. We will take all weapons. Only
law enforcement will be allowed to have guns."
Thousands of firearms were then confiscated from law-abiding gun
owners. The police gave no paperwork or receipts for those guns.
They just stormed in and seized them.
With your help we're going to make the first time in New Orleans
the LAST time in America. Thank you!
Now, one year later, these crimes against gun owners have
snowballed into a far greater threat to our freedoms.
Even though NRA secured a court order demanding their immediate
and unconditional return, almost every single confiscated
firearm remains locked in government trailers.
With the stroke of a pen, Mayor Nagin and Police Superintendent
Compass are getting away with "murder"—a savaging of the second,
fourth and fourteenth amendments of our Constitution. And they
have put America on notice that they're going to keep seizing
lawfully owned guns under any pretense.
New Orleans gun owners are showing up at these trailers, with
serial numbers of their firearms, expecting Mayor Nagin and his
band of anti-gunners to respect the Federal courts.
They are met by stony-eyed bureaucrats who say serial numbers
aren't enough—and that gun owners now need PROOF OF PURCHASE of
these firearms.
How many of those gun owners do you think had original receipts
for those firearms? And even if they did, how many do you think
could find those receipts in the wreckage of a hurricane?
Many of these firearms were passed down from father to son,
generation to generation. Some are precious heirlooms. Some are
collector's pieces won in our wars. And they were all lawfully
owned and they must be returned to their owners.
With your help we're going to make the first time in New Orleans
the LAST time in America. Thank you!
