The ATF stripped the license of Red's Trading Post, in Twin Falls, Idaho, in March after an audit found numerous record-keeping violations over a five-year period.

Article doesn't mention the almost weekly (definitely monthly) ATF raids and spot checks that occur over at Red's.

Also doesn't mention that a "record-keeping violation" includes things as minor as writing "ID" on an application instead of spelling out "Idaho" on the address line.

ATF has been engaged in wholesale harassment. I hope Crapo and Craig keep a permanent hold on ANY head of ATF until every one of their corrupt thugs is booted from the organization. A hold on their budget allocations would be good too. Drain that organization into oblivion.

A federal judge later ruled the agency had exaggerated and omitted some of the findings it used to revoke the license.

Government personnel who do such things should be held personally liable for their deeds.

Same with those who do things that lead to taxpayers having to foot the bill to pay (either via settlement or judgment) those who have been mistreated.
