Please call and email your federal representatives to support, and forward to (soon) President Trump,
Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner's ATF Elimination Act.
The ATF Elimination Act will abolish
an abusive and corrupt government agency while transferring its
“exclusive duties” to the FBI and DEA. (1)
Yes,
federal gun, tobacco, and explosives law will still be enforced. (2)
The ATF Elimination Act will simply remove a costly,
unconstitutional, and redundant federal agency best associated with
corruption and assaults on every human liberty listed in the Bill of
Rights. (3)
Opposition
to the ATF Elimination Act by congressional liberals and the institutional Republican neo-con mafia, who refuse to cut a single
deficit dollar or wasteful bureaucracy, will be formidable.
It is, therefore, imperative you call and email
your federal reps urging them to support Rep. Sensenbrenner's
legislation eliminating the unnecessary and abusive government agency.
Footnotes:
1. There
are sincere, constitutionally-minded, patriotic Americans working
within the ATF. However, the agency's overall history and culture is corruption, waste, and anti-constitutionality.
2.
If federal and state gun laws had any public safety component Chicago
would be the nation's safest city and Kennesaw, Georgia (recently named America's most gun-friendly city) the most dangerous. Gun laws only aid the state in prosecuting individuals caught violating those laws, but do nothing to protect citizens who will not or cannot arm
themselves.
3. The ATF's
sordid history is wrought with such 'heroics' as the Ruby Ridge
murders, Waco Branch Dividian massacre, the deadly and highly
illegal Fast and Furious gun running scheme, extra legal
(non-legislated) bans on manufacturing and importation of various
firearms and ammunition, plus numerous abusive arrests and
prosecutions of American gun owners, collectors, and manufacturers.
