We've seen the BATF Gestapo in action before, backed by the likes of Erik Holder (Janet Reno's houseboy) and a libtard prezident.

I havent read the rest of the thread yet, so this may be redundant, but I had to point out that it wasn't the ATF that murdered 90+ folks in Waco. That was an FBI operation. (I'll concede that the ATF may well have been consulted on how to make sure the firestorm would best be accelerated because of their knowledge of arson.) However, the ATFs main role in that exercise of government sponsored mass-murder was largely limited to having their asses handed to them by the inhabitants of the building they were attempting to storm whilst firing into it indiscriminately dispite the fact that relatively few shots were actually fired by the Branch Davidians attempting to defend themselves. The Davidians allowed the ATF agents to retreat from the scene under a flag of truce after the bumbling fools from the government ran out of ammo.

I don't know that I would have allowed that were I in their place and had been subject to an illegal and unprooked attack.

ATF drew first blood. Thanks for making my point.
