Incorrect - there are documented cases of the police entering private homes without warrant and confiscating firearms from law abiding citizens.

The 4th Amendment was positively raped during Katrina. It is a national disgrace, but unfortunately those responsible - Mayor Nagin and his Police Superintendent, P. Edwin Compass - have escaped justice for their criminal acts.

The only positive thing to come from these outrageous seizures is that the majority of states now have laws on the books preventing future occurrences of this appalling behavior.

Re: Say Hello to the Goodby Gun

Here's the heartwarming video of an elderly woman being brutalized by the police, for the heinous crime of refusing to leave her home and being armed for her own defense.

The use of physical force to remove someone from their own property just because some government nitwit (think Ray Nagin) decides that they must leave.
