"That the allegations and the fear of reprisals turned out to be justified is a matter of record. I bring this up because, working with the insiders proved us right then, and lends credence to our concerns now. In spite of all the stupidity, corruption and outright evil, disbanding ATF is not in the interest of gun owners." |

Gun owners and manufacturers might be far better served if Congress - with or without WH co-operation - sought out a real "straight-shooter" and gave them carte blanche to remake BATFE. Yes, the concept is rife for abuse;which means such a selection must be above reproach and "untouchable", too !
But the "upside" is if this white knight were to appear they - with the help of a "flying squad' of aides dedicated to preservation of our gun rights - might just restore public confidence in BATFE, and by extension, some other government agencies/bureaus as well. |

Everything I've witness in govt demostrates higher and higher levels of incompetence. BATFE has no more chance of a 'White Knight' than the Republicans did of electing a speaker of the house that would honor his oath of office. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
