I was in New Orleans during Katrina... I disarmed NOT ONE SINGLE PERSON. I stopped and talked to quite a few who were visably armed and very pissed off but did not remove their weapons. I got "talked to" by the Lt for it but that's it. I told him if he wanted me to collect guns from citizens who were defending their property they should put me on a plane and send me home. Most of my troops felt the same way.
