I seem to recall a war of some sort that occurred in part due to similar situations.... Something about a Revolution...

Seriously! Does the Constitution not apply in the Virgin Islands???

Remember how the antis claimed Katrina was an "aberration" and it would never happen again?

I remember Senator Adam Kline snidely telling the 591 backers it "wasn't necessary."

Shouldn't the National Guard have their own supplies rather than stealing from residents?????

"U.S. Virgin Islands Gov. Kenneth Mapp signed an emergency order allowing the seizure of private guns, ammunition, explosives and property the National Guard may need to respond to Hurricane Irma.

Bet there are a lot of shovels at work as we speak. It would seem the National Guard has better things to do to prep for Irma landfall than go around confiscating firearms & paraphernalia.

From Wikipedia:
A licenese is required to purchase any firearm or ammunition. All firearms must be registered with the Virgin Islands Police Department. The territory currently has a "may issue" policy for concealed carry permits. To obtain one, the applicant must meet a stringent set of requirements, so few people receive permits.

Of course not. They were too busy robbing, raping, and killing to be bothered with registering their guns.

Soooo.....

The islands are getting fuked by Irma and the Government at the same time.

Seems odd to call them the Virgin Islands if they've been in a threesome.

I don't think they have a constitution in the VI yet, do they?
