Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms should be the name of a convenience store and not an agency of the central communist government!

The largest arms dealer in the history of the world .... the US government.... wants to deny its own citizens those same rights. The government is too big and to opaque to the people it was meant to govern. Cut it down by at least half and get back to our roots. Lets sell some t-shirts and other paraphernalia with, "Shock The World! We're taking America BACK!"

Probably. Why wouldn't they? For the last 5+ years they've been given free reign to do whatever they want

“Did you really think we want those laws observed?”
said Dr. Ferris. “We want them to be broken. You’d
better get it straight that it’s not a bunch of boy
scouts you’re up against... We’re after power and we
mean it... There’s no way to rule innocent men. The
only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t
enough criminals one makes them. One declares so
many things to be a crime that it becomes
impossible for men to live without breaking laws.
Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What’s
there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced or
objectively interpreted – and you create a nation of
law-breakers – and then you cash in on guilt. Now
that’s the system, Mr. Reardon, that’s the game,
and once you understand it, you’ll be much easier to
deal with.”

- Ayn Rand, 1957 -

It seems to me that one could have some great fun if on were inclined to feign mental illness in the presence of some ATF agents...

Quick Darrell, fire off another letter and this time tell him you are really, really mad. Richest man in Congress is either an idiot or traitor.

You are correct. The Obamites don’t hate guns. They love guns.

What they hate is guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens.

You make an excellent point. Mr. Issa is very good at making dramatic pronouncements but so far he’s been pretty ineffectual in putting together a plan to bring the criminals at BATFE to justice.

A bit off-topic, but...

WTF has Issa/the Rebubs actually done since 2011? I can't think of one Dem brought to justice, one Obama outrage corrected, one scandal punished. Demoralizing. Where is our single-minded joy of scorched earth fighting that Dems enjoy? The simple fact is that most battles fought without passion are lost. Where are the Repubs that will tell the Rancid Media reporters to go have sex with themselves? Why has the greatest press freedom ever seen been a force for muzzling opposing opinions?

I, too, am just left speechless by the bone-headed audacity of these monkeys.

He talks a lot, like many Republicrats, but doesn’t accomplish a damned thing.
