The last thing on earth we need is more power for the ATF. Barr is a big government stooge. The ATF should be shut down entirely not given more power.
With the advent of the National Register for Medical Marijuana, few realize that their name on this register allows ATF to confiscate their firearms if they don't voluntarily sell them or give them to family members.
Medical marijuana and the 'opioid crisis' which resulted in the draconian reduction in lawful pain medication prescriptions is nothing more than back-door registration and firearm confiscation.
