Can't we all just get along? Sing song and hold hands by the campfire?

I think we all agree what happened sucked. How it was portrayed to us may vary, but no one here is happy that law abiding people had their guns taken.

However, even if his entire unit refused to obey illegal orders, there didn't seem to be a shortage of those who would happily follow them.

I like this guy. Unfortunately, most people don't have the balls to stand up to authority when it is clearly in the wrong.

If by "more affluent areas" you mean middle class, you would be correct. The upper class didn't have anything to worry about.

Just not accurate

I love it in the video when he says they were there to "persuade" people to leave "without using force"....while they bust in to a home with an AR and confiscate guns.

NOPD saying they will take all weapons and no one will be able to be armed. They got sued and lost for a reason, as best I can tell. I've never been a solider, but I would have a hard time following some of the orders those guys were given. That was ABC, not NRA video.

I'd be interested in knowing why they lost a lawsuit if they didn't illegally confiscate weapons. It has happened before. Remember this guy:

I hope there would be people like this around.

I hate to say it but I was there and this isn't an accurate portrayal in my experience.

How was this inaccurate? I seriously don't know. Seems like they got sued and lost for a reason.

Ya know I got to IL all the time for work. They have some of the strictest gun laws in the country. In fact, I believe they just recently (finally) passed CHL laws. Yet southside Chicago is an absolute war zone.

We should be more understanding. After all, the government is doing this for our own protection, right?

Wow. Never even knew this happened. Obviously mainstream media didn't cover this. I'm sure someone else posted on this. I'm just floored and felt a need to share:
