Nobody's infringing anything in this case. This guy openly admits to poor record keeping and administrative practices as required by federal law and supported by the National Rifle Association. He didn't abide by the rules and got his license yanked. No sympathy here.

That's why the NRA receives no money or support from me.

What other businesses are routinely and forcibly shut down for good by the federal government over trivial and infrequent paperwork mistakes? This isn't a case of selling High Points and Lorcins a case at a time to out of town diversity or losing AR-15s out of the back room, it's one in a thousand paperwork oversights. If any of this had any ties to violent crime, you can bet it would have made the mainstream press by now.

I'm not trying to be a wise guy but the ATF is a tax collection division of the federal gov.

Read "Unintended Consequences" and read the history of ATF enforcement and their goal to destroy gun dealers.
It opened my eyes!

Nobody can have 100% compliance with BATFE paperwork. Over the years, as they squeeze out more dealers, they will be able nit-pick the remaining ones until there are none left.

The reduction in the number of FFL dealers has already affected competition. Gun prices are getting higher all the time, for no reason other than competition is going away.

Pricing guns out of the reach of ordinary citizens is infringing their 2nd Amendment rights.
