[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3344817, member: 5412"] You made some good points about what has happened in the past. Truthful facts. The Katrina incident brought some states to their senses by passing laws that do not allow what happened after that incident where guns were forcibly taken. Oklahoma being one of them that doesn't now allow our guns to be taken during a state of emergency. We know that motorists and pilots from NY are being stopped on the roads and house to house searches are being done in Rhode Island looking for those fleeing from NYC. The Bundy situation was not avoidable. There was a perceived crime scene that as I understand it is enforceable to keep traffic away for "public safety". How that public safety thing turned out I don't know. BTW the government was in the wrong during the Bundy incident just like they were during the Katrina hurricane. When an F5 tornado went through Andover Ks the mayor of the city did not allow the residents back into their homes to recover anything. [B]"The Andover example[/B] The lack of preparation was also evident in the days following the tornado. Residents whose houses had been damaged or destroyed by the tornado were forbidden from returning to their homes to search for keepsakes or other valuables. Bulldozers were used in the search for human remains — and then to shove the debris into large central piles awaiting removal. "Everybody uses the Andover example in debris management," Schmidt said. "This is what you don't do, and this is why. "In their hurry to get things cleaned up, they were forgetting about the rights of the residents," he added. "What little they have, they need to be allowed to go through it, to try to find something. It's their life." [URL]https://www.kansas.com/news/local/article1062349.html[/URL] Peoples entire lives including gun safes and hardened file cabinets that were not damaged and still anchored to the concrete, etc were just taken away and buried in landfills. I can see the reasoning for vehicle not being allowed on the road during periods of major ice and snow events. It only takes one two wheel drive (lol! the 4wd vs 2wd threads are epic)blocking an intersection that will prevent emergency vehicles access to your home where grandma is having a heart attack.
