ATF’s made up law leads to 123 investigations
ATF made up a rule where folks in border states had to report multiple rifles sales. This rule is of questionable legality. But they’ll still investigate you for it. Also, looks a lot like an unlawful database to me:
The U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives said Wednesday that it is not looking at everyone who makes multiple purchases, but those who draw suspicion for other reasons, such as repeatedly buying the same guns.
Rule by fiat.

They have to create problems before they can solve them.

Funny. Our Federal Tax Dollars are being wasted on this nonsense, when those people at the BATFEIEIO could be processing the paperwork for those who want Suppressors. Heard it’s up to a 6 month Backlog.
Of course, it would be nice if some Political Candidates would ask a Simple Question: Why do we have an Agency draining the Federal Budget spending more time Breaking the Law than enforcing it?

Actually the Federal Gov’t has NO “delegated powers” in the Constitution for alcohol, tobacco or firearms so the whole agency is UNLAWFUL and should be disbanded.
