It may not be a conspiracy, but it also isn't right. Sure- if they find a gun sitting on the kitchen table, they might want to secure it. But this does seem a little excessive to me.
What I don't get is why authorities can't try to meet the residents part way? Maybe tell the Alderside refugees they can select X number of people to go into town accompanied. These people may have lost everything they own in the world. Both sentimental items and expensive items. Some people stand to lose 100's of thousands of dollars. Others had to fight to get them to check in on pets.
I get that there are risks to allowing people into the town. As suggested earlier, make the people sign a waiver saying they understand the risks.
