18 USC 242 Should really be used against every Gun Grabber and agency who wants to subvert the 2nd amendment.

it sounds like an easy slam dunk.

Can any Attys out there enlighten me as to why I am wrong

I am not an attorney. But I can offer a reason why 18 USC 242 is irrelevant.

We do not have a trustworthy FBI or Justice Department that can or will make such cases.

It will require major purges within the FBI before that organization can be trusted to follow executive directions from the Trump administrations. That is, even if reform of the FBI is possible. It may not be possible, in which case, the entire agency must be replaced with something else. Or maybe nothing else.

As presently composed, the FBI is filled with people who are overtly insubordinate to a Republican President and will not effectively work cases against Democrat-sponsored terrorist groups. They certainly will not work cases against Democrats who are obstructing the Second Amendment. In my opinion, an absolute majority of the 10,000 Special Agents in the FBI are strongly opposed to private citizens possessing or using firearms.

The Constitution is simply not important to police forces. Neither are Federal or State laws. What is important is following orders from their bosses. That is where these problems must be solved.

BTW, it is clear to me that almost all Democrat politicians, and a great many Republican politicians are opposed to private citizens possessing or using firearms. That is where the unacceptable directions to police forces originate.
