It's long past time to completely de-fund any 'enforcement' activities of the ATF. Let them put tax stamps on whiskey bottles and cigarette packs and nothing else.

And whoever approved this little operation needs to not only be fired but prosecuted. Any Federally licensed gun dealer would be looking at a decade or so for this.

While I would have in the past agreed with you I cant now. The ATF is so F Troop they’d screw up affixing stamps. They need to be completely disbanded and disallowed from being hired to any public service post. In fact all employees save for office help should be meticulously investigated and prosecuted if necessary. Worthless is a mild description of the ATF.

Why do we even have excise taxes on booze and cigarettes? In the case of booze, it dates back to the Whiskey Rebellion. It's time to get rid of both those excise taxes. That would eliminate two letters of BATFE.
