"I Think Police Need Total Control"

[Via WOG]

State Rep. Mike Shelton said House Bill 2696 has placed the power of the law into the wrong hands."During states of emergency, I think police need total control. They don't need to worry who has guns and who doesn't. If the governor calls for Oklahomans to relinquish their guns, the public needs to do so," Shelton said.

Taking away guns during a disaster is even more ridiculous than "regular" gun control. Let's forget about the illegality of such an act for just a moment. Say the governor told EVERYONE to turn in their guns. Would those with criminal intent comply? Would the law-abiding comply? What you end up with is a bunch of easy targets. Sounds like a good idea to me.
