Quote of the Day
The ATF tends to focus or has a significant focus on trivial, immaterial violations which are unrelated to public safety. And they impose unreasonable standards of perfection which are simply not humanly achievable.
Via Triggerfinger, who notes:
One of the big differences between the BATFE and other tax-and-regulate agencies is that the laws the BATFE is charged with enforcing bear some heavy penalties. It’s like going after people who pay their taxes late with rocket launchers and ignoring people who don’t pay at all.

This entire discussion, from the first word to the last, is of course predicated on the non-existance of any of your Constitutionally guaranteed rights.
It starts and ends with the assumption that the proper role of government is to “keep us safe” as though we were so many cattle.
