[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 3304436, member: 1132"] Do you have verifiable evidence of this? I ask only because I worked with someone who was an O-3 in the OK NG, who was in charge of a detachment on the ground after Katrina in the NOLA area. He directly told me that they were asked to seize firearms by the local authorities. Not only did he refuse, he told them to not call his unit when they got their ass in a crack. He's not someone I've ever known to lie. He's an O-6 now. Several good points have been raised in this thread. There are definitely multiple camps within the ranks of LE and .mil. Some would look forward to donning the jackboots. Some would just want to escape with their hides and pensions intact. Some would openly resist unconstitutional orders and some would quietly subvert the unconstitutional processes form within. If it came to illegal confiscations and abuse of ERPO's like we're seeing in Florida, how valuable would it be to have someone within the confiscation unit leaking intel on who, where and when they were coming? One thing the 2A side needs is intel, and that will only come from within. Don't throw all "authorities" in the same bucket as the jackboots, because you're going to need friends in many places should this situation continue to devolve. Just sayin... :coffee2: [/QUOTE]
