SWIFT said...: The arrogance of this lawless agency is breathtaking. Think for a minute, the complete lack of moral values, of someone wanting to join such an agency, given their history. Yet, scum bag Americans, both male and female, apply every day. Even more appalling, is the lack of interest in the Congress, to rein in, or abolish, this gang of domestic terrorists. When this assault on our rights finally goes south, members of Congress, will be sitting around scratching their balls,(the four or five that have any) wondering how it could have happened. We need to mobilize and flood congress with letters demanding action. Do not let your congressman cop out by telling you about Issa's committee. Preempt this by telling him/her that Issa is a double talking scab.; March 16, 2014 at 6:56 AM
Paul X said...: One comment on another blog said they managed to get a judge to sign a warrant.

All the silly legal games are starting to bore me. When will people learn that the laws are for the peons, not the rulers? There is no avoiding a fight. It is too late now.; March 16, 2014 at 10:30 AM
Phelps said...: As Ken at Popehat once said, "Federal judges always really mean it." I don't expect this to go well for the ATF. A magistrate judge does not "outrank" a Real Deal Article III judge. This is serious, serious overreach from the ATF, not matter what fairy tales the US Atty's office was telling them about precedent and "the law" and all of that. At the end of the day, an Article III judge (one of whom in fact this case will have to be heard in front of) was ignored and flaunted, and that will come back to haunt the ATF.

My prediction? An order gets entered ordering the ATF to return everything, destroy all records regarding the investigation, and the exclusionary rule applied to any evidence even tangentially related to the records seized.

I think at the end of the day, the ATF will consider itself lucky if the agent that entered the affidavit isn't referred for perjury prosecution by the Article III judge.; March 16, 2014 at 7:38 PM

"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.
