Firearm Confiscation In Moore

[WessonOil]

Because although there are all kinds of filth on television, most professionals try and keep some of the gore out of public view.

Maybe next time Saddlebum will invite you out for a first hand view if you are into that.

First of all, the media isn't professional, and they're perfectly happy reporting and showing human gore and suffering publicly.

You may also want to make note of the fact I've never requested to see gory photos or hear gory details, that was a result of you choosing to be emotional rather than objective,

There are simply no reports to be found at all.

Once again, don't shoot the messenger boy...feel free to Google it yourself.

Would you agree that "euthanized" could be a more acceptable term for "stuck my service pistol in his ear and blew his brains out"? Google away.

I asked a friend that is a master Sargent on the okc pd about having to put animals down. He has been on scene since day one. Not only the Orr family farm, but others lost livestock in the area.
This is what he sent me in a text:

"There were lots with their hides peeled off and innards hanging out that had to be put down."

The owner of several of the major big box hardware stores also lost the majority of their livestock.

The standard policy in a disaster situation is for all guns to be confiscated, he should have just left them alone and waited for the National guard to go home. Everyone should know this!

Negative sir.

SEC. 557. Title VII of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 5201) is amended by adding at the end the following:

‘‘SEC. 706. FIREARMS POLICIES.
‘‘(a) PROHIBITION ON CONFISCATION OF FIREARMS.—
No officer or employee of the United States (including any member of the uniformed services), or person operating pursuant to or under color of Federal law, or receiving Federal funds, or under control of any Federal official, or providing services to such an officer, employee, or other person, while acting in support of relief from a major disaster or emergency, may—
‘‘(1) temporarily or permanently seize, or authorize seizure of, any firearm the possession of which is not prohibited under Federal, State, or local law, other than for forfeiture in compliance with Federal law or as evidence in a criminal investigation;
‘‘(2) require registration of any firearm for which registration is not required by Federal, State, or local law;
‘‘(3) prohibit possession of any firearm, or promulgate any rule, regulation, or order prohibiting possession of any firearm, in any place or by any person where such possession is not otherwise prohibited by Federal, State, or local law; or
‘‘(4) prohibit the carrying of firearms by any person otherwise authorized to carry firearms under Federal, State, or local law, solely because such person is operating under the direction, control, or supervision of a Federal agency in support of relief from the major disaster or emergency.
‘‘(b) LIMITATION.—Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit any person in subsection (a) from requiring the temporary surrender of a firearm as a condition for entry into any mode of transportation used for rescue or evacuation during a major disaster or emergency, provided that such temporarily surrendered firearm is returned at the completion of such rescue or evacuation.
‘‘(c) PRIVATE RIGHTS OF ACTION.—
‘‘(1) IN GENERAL.—Any individual aggrieved by a violation of this section may seek relief in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress against any person who subjects such individual, or causes such individual to be subjected, to the deprivation of any of the rights, privileges, or immunities secured by this section.
‘‘(2) REMEDIES.—In addition to any existing remedy in law or equity, under any law, an individual aggrieved by the seizure or confiscation of a firearm in violation of this section may bring an action for return of such firearm in the United States district court in the district in which that individual resides or in which such firearm may be found.
‘‘(3) ATTORNEY FEES.—In any action or proceeding to enforce this section, the court shall award the prevailing party, other than the United States, a reasonable attorney’s fee as part of the costs.’’.

Yep. Okla learned from Katrina, and made sure that would never happen here.

For the last time. The police were shooting injured animals.
I witnessed it.

My equine vet was at my house Friday morning, there was supposedly an interview on CNN Friday afternoon with several vets that assisted in putting some down. The vers were also shooting them. They ran put of juice. He was one of them. I don't know if it actually aired, and he didn't either. There was a short piece on channel 9 early Saturday morning that discussed the animals.

He did say there were a few officers that weren't very good at it. Humanely shooting an animal with a brain about the size of an apple isn't all that easy.

Again, I have no clued if they were begging ammo or not. I'm not sure that matters. I'm done discussing it. As was my vet. It was pretty traumatic for all involved.

This is the most disgusting thread I've ever read. So some of you morons think that the local National Guard folks are infiltrators planted by the Feds? You numb nuts don't know that they most likely are 2nd or 3rd generation families that have been in the same Guard unit for years. Sons and daughters following their parents footsteps, the same people that lost houses in the same storm as everyone else. You don't even know the pay status of those of us that have been down there working even today. Right after the storm cleared the area there were Guard folk down there trying to assist people in need and not giving a damn about a pay status anyway. You don't know that Guard folk were volunteering there time to help others and then go home to take care of there own damage later. All over a damn wild a$$ co-workers cousins sister in law crack smoking buddies neighbors uncle story and then 6-7 pages of how the Guard members and local LEO's are gonna get shot if the come to take my gun posts. Well next time your house is exploded by a storm, who the heck do think is going to come and help you sorry a$$ out??? Most likely a local LEO or Guard guy.
Second, the storm went from puffy cloud to F5 in about an hour, so who in that time said, "Humm, I better stock up on ammo so I can shoot injured livestock." ??? That was the first thing I would have thought of....NOT. Some of you brilliant, sit in the house all day clapping on the computer keyboard folk really need to get the freek out of your houses, apartment, bug out hole, bunker and meet some of you neighbors. Since I've been working down at Moore and mostly at Bethel, you'll meet some really nice and heroic people, that you'll be glad that you got off your paranoid a$$ and helped. Then when the next big disaster hits and you are the one that needs bailed out, you won't be so suspicious of your neighbor who is trying to help, because the like helping others.

Professionals I refer to are firefighters and law enforcement. If there are several euthanizations taking place, they aren't going call in media. They probably aren't going to issue a news release about it either.
