But yeah, blame people who's only real crime was exercising their right to the second amendment.

wtf are you babbling about? you really don't think it's a big deal that they are refusing to prosecute people for carrying illegal firearms during mardi gras?

one of these people will murder someone and blood will be on the hands of the prosecutors.

Constitutional carry should have happened in Louisiana, as it has in almost every neighboring state, except for politicians like Nungesser, Frank Foil, and the Louisiana Association of Sheriffs. Absolutely pathetic state, run by pathetic good old boy politicians.

I think there is a good chance that they were illegally searching them to begin with? Is there any information on what Nabors was doing when he got his gun taken away?

Take this for what it’s worth, a guy in my neighborhood was telling other neighbors that he was working a security detail for NOPD where he was in plain clothes on the parade route/heavy traffic areas with some sort of device that locates concealed guns. His job was to walk around the route and when his device picked one up then he was to alert NOPD and they would take action. That sounded off to me at the time but now it’s sounding like there could be some truth to it.

But I'm asking questions.

Why are they "illegal?"



Are the guns stolen? Prosecute that.
Were they being brandished? Prosecute that
Were they threatening anyone, or behaving recklessly with the firearm? Prosecute that.
Were they a convicted felon in possession of a firearm? Prosecute that.

But If their only crime was that they had a firearm on their person at a parade...
Yeah, I'd be carrying too in New Orleans. Laws didn't stop those people from being shot and killed and never will.


Punish behavior, not possession.

The firearm wasn't illegal.

The carrying was.

Very large difference.

I carry everywhere that's a higher risk environment. I'd rather take my chances that it is illegal at a parade route.
