David Kopel (over at Volokh) was one of the very first to propose shooting the Katrina looters, even though such action would be plainly illegal.
Today he applauds a consent decree in which everyone agrees that it was illegal to confiscate guns in the aftermath of Katrina.
I guess the laws are worth upholding, except when they aren’t.
