now is the time for all good american congressmen and senators to pass legislation making the ATF null and void..PERIOD..... NO whining, no making excuses,, cancel the suckers OUT !!!! KICK their donkeys to the curb. Slap them so hard their mother cries... stop this foolishness in its’ tracks...

Repeal the enabling legislation - that's the only way to render ATF inert. Leave the laws in place and the Feds will simply shuffle enforcement duties to another agency.

Sadly, even if the GOP held the White House and supermajorities in both houses of Congress, they'd still balk at such a suggestion.
