U.S. Virgin Islands Gun Grab Ahead of Hurricane Irma
"U.S. Virgin Islands Gov. Kenneth Mapp signed an emergency order allowing the seizure of private guns, ammunition, explosives and property . . . . in preparation for Hurricane Irma, the Daily Caller reports.
My hunch is that homes that are appropriately defended are less likely to be looted. Why court a man-made disaster when a natural disaster is already breathing down your neck?
Meanwhile, in "Gun-Controlled Chicago: At Least 45 Shot, Seven Killed over Labor Day Weekend," according to Breitbart. Government control of the means of self-defense seems to make Chicago less safe, more dangerous. And that's bad government, not good government.
Meanwhile, part 2, Chicago Mayor and former Obama White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel tells "Dreamers" that Chicago schools are a "Trump free" zone, the WTimes reports.
Is this really a solution? Let's make an already violent gun-controlled Chicago an avowed magnet for illegal aliens? You expect folks who disrespect immigration laws to care about obeying gun laws? Something's not adding up.
Chicago already suffers from a hurricane of violence. Based on current policies, more violence could be on the way. Not from nature, but from politics.
