Fairfax, VA—The National Rifle Association (NRA ) has filed a motion for contempt against the City of New Orleans, the mayor and the acting chief of police for failure to comply with a temporary restraining order, handed down September 12, 2005, ordering an end to all illegal gun confiscations.

“With looters, rapists and other thugs running rampant in New Orleans, Ray Nagin issued an order to disarm all law-abiding citizens,” declared Wayne LaPierre, NRA executive vice president. “With no law enforcement and 911 available, he left the victims vulnerable by stripping away their only means of defending themselves and their loved ones. Now Ray Nagin thinks he’s above the law, and that’s just wrong.”

Attorneys for NRA have exhausted all efforts to cooperate with the defendants, Mayor Nagin and Chief Riley, who repeatedly ignored the court’s permanent restraining order against their illegal gun confiscations.

“Ray Nagin is a colossal disappointment,” said Chris W. Cox, NRA chief lobbyist. “During a federally declared emergency, he abused his power and abandoned the very people he was sworn to protect. He took away the victims’ freedom and their basic means of self-defense during an ill-fated and perilous time.”

The motion also includes an order that all seized firearms must be returned to their rightful owners.

THAT guy should have been the one most people focused their dissappointment with during that whole ordeal, not Bush.

It doesn't matter if Nagin wins this lawsuit, he's lost his job. I don't know the numbers, but I'd say 75% of his voters aren't in NOLA anymore. His next election will see him lose in a landslide. Good riddance.

I wonder if he could run for Mayor at Large? Since his constituents are also at large he could be a traveling mayor, covering Baton Rouge, Lafayette, Houston, Detroit, chicago, and everywhere else his tribe has landed. You shouldn't have to live in Louisiana to be represented by the honorable Ray Nagin Esq.

Allegations that the NOLA City Government are the biggest criminal organization there are not new.

Actually that would be the best course of action for us he could take. Let's hope he does not take this seriously and fails to respond to the complaint the NRA served him. In a civil court, if you fail to respond to the complaints served upon you, the judge will automatically rule judgement in favor of the plaintiff

... My hope is that Ray Nagin is prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. A highly visible and painful prosecution.

... If nothing else but to simply serve as a reminder of any current or future public office holder the consequences of fucking with the 2A.
