For far too long have Americans been deprived of our full 2nd amendment, which SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED. In 1936, the NFA was challenged in the Supreme Court, where it was declared constitutional because the weapons that were regulated (Automatic Weapons, Short Barrel Rifles, Short Barrel Shotguns) were not in “common use” by the military. Nowadays, all 3 are in common use across the entirety of the DOD. The time is now to restore American’s constitutional rights.
The ATF routinely abuses their power to deprive American gun owners of life and liberty. It is clear at this point that this agency has a serious cultural problem due to their repeated campaigns of harassing, bullying, persecuting, and killing innocent Americans. They have been involved in numerous high profile government scandals such as Fast and Furious, where the federal government intentionally armed the violent cartel criminals, Ruby Ridge, or the calamity at Waco, TX. At this point it is clear that this rogue agency must be brought to heel. My recommendation is to fire the entire agency and rehire only the employees who can demonstrate a clear will to protect the constitution and the American people.
