Maybe TV shows should quit portraying Federal agents as good guys, too. Since they aren’t anymore, after all.
The “bikers” being discussed here are the outlaw gangs.
If you’re wearing “colors”, you “earned” them by doing something “outside the law”.
An organization that treats its most celebrated members like the ATF treated this agent will have no qualms in violating the rights of ordinary citizens.
I’ve read credible reports that Dobyn’s fabricated portions of what he wrote about, to include evidence that led to the indictments resulting from Op. Black Biscuit.
ATF gets rebuked. Nobody gets fined, nobody does any time, dozens of memos are written. Meanwhile the plaintiff’s life was torn apart and he only had to spend 6 years in legal litigation to get...nothing. Yeah, that’s fair.
The Court seems to have seen things differently. So much for your credible reports.
You read the word “gangs” in my post, didn’t you?
Duh?
Spellcheck had no objection to “loveable”. Nor to “lovable”.
The OED says “loveable,” so you graduate to absolute genius.
My understanding is that the Fast and Furious brass promoted the idea he burned his own house down and the Judge pointed out how much evidence other investigators had that showed the opposite made it appear that the brass was attempting to deny him the needed protection and that is part of why he was given an additional award.
I think you summed it up well.
