Mitch being Mitch...

The proposed law would require private gun owners to call the police in the event their firearms are stolen, within 48 hours of discovery, according to sources familiar with the ordinance. Law enforcement officials said that better reporting of stolen guns would help them track illegal firearms that are fueling street crime.


Mitch is an idiot... Why wouldn't you report it stolen....?

Typical grandstanding politician...

I'm sure all the upstanding thugs will walk right into the police stations to report their guns missing.

If it wasn't actually, you know, stolen. The article talks about it.

Because it's not worth the time you spend fricking with NOPD over it.

People almost always report them stolen. What's the point of this? Oh yeah, he gets to do a press conference and make a bunch of idiots think he's championing some extraordinary cause.

I'd venture to say that reporting it stolen is a waste of time when you're dealing with NOPD. You're just about as likely to get your stolen lucky nickel back when they're on the case

I have a problem with the grandstanding politician...

What law abiding gun owner wouldn't report it stolen.. Why does he have to make a law to do so...?

The point is that this law will do nothing to reduce crime. Law abiding citizens are already doing this and there's no way criminals will report a stolen firearm that's likely already stolen in the first place. It's political grandstanding at it's finest and will have absolutely no effect on violent crime rates.

Joseph Landrieu, grandfather of Mitch and Mary and father of Moon, was born in 1892 in Mississippi. His race is given on the 1900 Census as Black. His race is given on the 1910 Census as White. His race is given on the 1920 Census as White. His race is given on the 1940 Census as White . Joseph’s father Victor Firmin Landrieu was French and came to the USA with his parents. Joseph’s mother Cerentha Mackey was born in Mississippi as the illegitimate child of a mixed-race black woman and an unknown father.

It is through his great-grandmother Cerentha Mackey that Mitch Landrieu has black ancestry, although this is probably only a small fraction of his heritage.

The law is the law. Go straight to jail for not securing your firearms, whitey!

So much truth in this. Not to mention that a large percentage of gun owners don't have their Serial Numbers written down so there is no point plus even when they have the info the police put it in NCIC wrong half the time.

From the article:

Councilman James Gray, whose office was the first to talk publicly about mandatory reporting of stolen guns, said earlier in the year that the purpose of the law isn't to punish law-abiding citizens who are the victims of crime, but to root out people who give their weapons to criminals and then tell authorities it was lost or taken.

Of course, that is already illegal. So I guess we are making giving guns to felons really REALLY illegal now.
