There are better ways of accomplishing this w/o acting like Barry. In fact theres something in the works right now all made possible by the ATF.
Yeah, its a drag. Customer wants a Thompson....has to wait 3-6 months for the SMG to get to me on a Form 3. Then they have to wait ANOTHER 6+ months to get it to them on a Form 4. Kinda sucks having $20k+ tied up for a year and no interest being paid to you.
There are better ways of accomplishing this w/o acting like Barry.The problem with that thinking is that "Barry" has set the precedent and it will only be constrained either voluntarily, by congressional legislation or by the SCOTUS. Until then, I DO NOT agree that only the DEM party gets to leverage that precedent.
Sooner or later, we need to start fighting fire with fire, or else the big bully (the Dems and their trained, sychophantic media) will never learn from the error of their ways. I would encourage the next non-dem president (hopefully, a strident conservative) to just ride roughshod over as many DEM sacred cows until they yell "Uncle"! Perhaps after that, the Dems will understand the costs of their carelessness.
It's beyond civil debate and reasoning. It is WELL past time to employ the "Pain & Compliance" technique, where you inflict pain until you gain compliance -- and I mean that towards both the Dems and their equally ugly, illegitimate twin-sibling, the GOPe.
