This coupled with Obamasama already wanting to remove gun rights to citizens means a police state of unheralded proportions. Sit down and shut up with no talking back or I'll shoot you with my machine gun...
Or....
There is a worry of a protracted Mumbai-type attack on a bigger scale, where state and local police could be overmatched. A quick-reaction force of full-time military personnel would probably fare better than the local cops many of whom have never drawn a weapon on duty.
Also - take note that the article said it had been in planning for a long time. Obamasama is not president yet - so it can't be his directive, but I agree with the policy.
From what I've been able to discern, the rumors of gun seizure have been fueled by people in the gun industry - who are enjoying brisk sales as a result.
