The ATF: Still Working Despite Shutdown

So take a bow NRA and all of the rest of the ATF Government hating crowd out there. Your influence over Congress has helped to arm the White Supremacist groups, who are arming themselves to the teeth, while planning armed revolution. They are, at the same time, hamstringing Federal authorities going about the daily business of trying to keep guns out of the hands of convicted felons and the mentally disturbed.

Backwoods Engineer said...: What a moron. If he actually could read, he might learn that background checks are performed by the FBI, not the ATF, and that post-'86 NFA item transfers are all that the ATF does for civilians now.; October 17, 2013 at 12:05 PM
Robert Fowler said...: Now that I have fewer brain cells. This statement stuck out at me because I'm a FFL.

" This forces agents to make telephone calls to gun makers and sellers and enlist their cooperation in tracing the history of a gun."

They don'r "enlist" our cooperation. Every time I have been called, I have always been fine with helping them out. It's part of that whole law abiding thing.

The ATF is working with out a paycheck? Not hardly. They are "essential" employee's and will be paid. These liberal idiot pisswits are sure trying to stir the pot. Do they not know that if it goes hot, they are fair game? Especially the bunch of idiots at the SPLC. There's a true terrorist group. There's a building I would like to help clear.; October 17, 2013 at 12:17 PM

Lord knows they did a great job keeping guns out of the hands of certain Mexican drug cartels.; October 17, 2013 at 3:14 PM
Sean said...: If jack asses like him had been around in 1776, they would have had the crap beaten out of them, and then probably hung, or tarred and feathered, or both. A better title would be, "Stabbing the Republic in the Back, since 1776".; October 18, 2013 at 8:58 AM

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
