Worrisome Message from Acting ATF Director (to whistleblowers)
Youtube ^ | 7/18/12 | SenChuckGrassley

Posted on 07/19/2012 1:17:25 PM PDT by Nachum

A video message from ATF Acting Director Todd Jones on July 9, 2012, to ATF staff presents a disturbing message to potential whistleblowers in the agency. The acting director says, "... if you don't find the appropriate way to raise your concerns to your leadership, there will be consequences. ..." Sen. Chuck Grassley says the essence of whistleblowing is reporting problems outside of an employee's chain of command, and whistleblowers were instrumental in exposing the shortcomings of Operation Fast and Furious.

Sure sounds like this member of the Klan With A Tan is making a threat to any patriotic American working for the ATF who wants the public to know about ATF crimes.

This will be life under Minority Rule.

I’m sure if a Bush appointee had threatened liberal whistleblowers the press would be equally quiet.../s

A message to those working under Acting ATF Director Jones....resist and whistleblow. Don't let this threatening thug intimidate you...do what you can to be rid of him, if that's possible. Resist and do what is right. This agency is but one with an infestation of obozo commie hacks...like roaches, they must be wiped out when the times comes.

“It’s the tribal way, just look at South Africa.”

The “consequences” he talks of will likely be a tire necklace, especially if the whistleblower is from another tribe.
