How about abolishing the ATF or turning it into a convenient store?

Or at least remove the F from it. Alcohol and tobacco aren't enshrined in the Bill of Rights. The Second Amendment is clear - it's ridiculous that we have an Executive Branch department devoted to infringing on it.

Mirror the guidance given to the FAA. Its mission statement is to promote aviation. I could think of no better mission for the ATF than promoting the use of all three.

You can use a gun responsibly.

You can’t use crack and heroin responsibly.

This ignorant display is villainizing a gun and serves the anti-gun agenda. Politically/ideologically motivated junk.

They may as well have an abortion display at the FDA, a BLM display at the DOJ, and an Obama phone at HHS.
