Because several police officers decided unilaterally to suspend the Constitution while ignoring state law.
But what was their reason for doing so? To unarm the citizens or because they needed to use the guns?
It also looks like martial law was declared (or at least arguably declared). I understand the concern and I certainly don't agree with unarming citizens even in the direst of circumstances (after all, if there was ever a time to own a gun for self defense, it was in the aftermath of Katrina), but I don't think that questioning citizens open carrying AR 15s in any way led to what happened.

I just hope all the people who are pissed about cops stopping people w/guns to check their ID also get mad when a brown man is stopped and meets demands to prove he is a legal citizen.
