The headline on Fox says it was AN ATF discovered plot. Guess who would benefit from a hyperstrong federal government....

If ya thought you considered these guys jack-booted-thugs in the past, yain’t seen nothing yet!

And just a reminder, for all the real good that may have been intended with the patriot act, the teeth it gives a liberty-antagonistic federal government could rival anything seen in ewwrup and the ussr.

ruefully...

The entire Waco disaster was caused by the ATF publicity stunt gone bad.

Similar story with the hyper paranoid Randy Weaver clown. It was an ATF undercover operative that pushed Weaver into a technical violation of the law, the ATF that lied to other Federal agencies and courts and the end result was the death of a US Marshal, a 10 year old boy and a mother with an infant in her arms. To me, the agency should have been disbanded and everyone fired after that mess.

Frankly, I will never trust the ATF.
