What response?

Seriously...

Here they are. Doing this. Killing people. Gaining power daily.

Go. Do it. Let's see this "response".

Are you willing to be painted as the next Drega? The next Heemeyer? The next Kaczynski? The next Breivik?

ATF needs to be abolished and loads of its management should be in prison.

"What would you do with someone who you knew could take you down with what they know?"

In the posiiton of the commies now running th egovernment, it depends if they wanted to play ball or not. If they didn't want to play ball then they would be "liquidated" with the utmost haste. Since these ATF yahoos are obviously team players, they are rewarded for keeping their yaps shut and playing ball.

Unfortunately they're not playing for the American team.

They acknowledged committing serious mistakes (crimes) and got promoted. This is the perfect argument for shuttering about half of the US governmental agencies.

Rather than being promoted they should all be arrested and tried.

That might lead to others—if you know what I mean.

Yes it is, and I would venture to say criminal.

Yet, isn’t this a classic example of your typical gov’t employee screw up getting promoted?

All of congress are complicit on this. Have we heard one single congressman actually insist on indictments?

Even with Obama’s reelection campaign underway, the opposition party don't even pretend to be outraged about this injustice.

...Been following this for a long time. Someone posted not only is this issue egregious, everything this administration has done is criminal! Even Clinton, as corrupt as he was, is a choirboy compared to these Nazis and Leninists!!!

Amazing.

Nah. History does not precisely repeat itself, but it does echo art times.

On 30th January, 1943, Adolf Hitler promoted Freidrich von Paulus to field marshal and sent him a message reminding him that no German field marshal had ever been captured. Hitler was clearly suggesting to Paulus to commit suicide but he declined and the following day surrendered to the Red Army. The last of the Germans surrendered on 2nd February.

Purchased silence. But it will not silence the investigation.

What a corrupt, self-serving good ol' boys club the ATF is.

Nothing we haven't known for a long while now...
