If the top leadership sneers at the law and the people, why would we expect different from the ones they lead?

Only Free Republic would make this information available outside of local news. The MSM will NOT report this stuff.

I am real sure the ATFe agent will get a real stern verbal warning.
Well, maybe a stern warning
Umm, maybe a warning?
Right, a commendation.
This is the ATFe, a ster of the Just-us Dept.

All hail big government, there is more to come as the beast grows larger, s/. Their are always individuals that will abuse the authority granted them by law.

The three drivers can thank the Good Lord that they were only passed and not killed.

This article is SO naive. The ATF is well known for this sort of behavior and far wrose. Yet Congress just can’t bring themselves to pull the plug.

This would be a guy that I’d draw in for a drug test. With his behavior....decent odds that he’s on something.

ATF: We’re sorry for this incident. We thought the driver was Mexican and drug connected. We only wanted to sell him a machine gun and rocket launchers. Please accept our humble apologies.

“they conclude that officers consider themselves a special class, above the ordinary rules of society and the law”

Yes, yes they do.

Dang, driving my NWS vehicle to the store (less than a mile) is a firing offense, if caught.

I’m sure President Trump along with a Republican House and Senate, will abolish the ATF. /sarc

The ATF is a rogue agency to start with. They commit illegal acts all the time.

What if your organization burned down a church KNOWN to be crowded with about 100 people and over 20 children on live television, with almost no legal or professional consequences?

You would feel you were working for an entity ABOVE THE LAW.

The very existence of the BATFE is an abuse of law. They have literally been getting away with murder since the 1920's. Since the Prohibition era. Back then, the mission was primarily busting moonshine makers. They really got their modern rep for Waco, Ruby Ridge and of course the Fast & Furious operations. They need to be disbanded and their firearms confiscated.

Hmmm, makes me wonder what BATF needs these under cover op’s for in Alaska? I would also wager there are more of them than just this rouge. Wonder what they are up to that they need this “caliber” of individual? Bet it stinks to high Heaven, whatever it is.

"It is a deprivation of rights under color of law."

"Using police lights to pull someone over without cause is depriving them of their constitutional rights under the Fourth Amendment."

I have no love for the ATF, but this author is a nut. I'm surprised he wasn't listed as Tyler Durden. The driver of the ATF vehicle was a jerk, but this article is black lives matter and gold fringed flag stuff.
