ATF Re-Classifies Certain Flares and 40mm Chalk Rounds as Explosives, Begins Confiscation

and this is from the ar15.com thread linked in the link above

 

 

 

I just contacted my Senator and OMB concerning this. My Senator is very concerned and OMB's response was interesting in that they say ATF is citing one section of law while ignoring others that define what makes a DD. OMB believes that ATF may be outside of the law on this and will be contacting my Senator tomorrow. After a nice discussion with an investigator there, it appears ATF is fudging the language of the applied section of code to make a determination to allow them to confiscate. The investigator with OMB believes that this may warrant action against FTB in BATFE. We shall see what happens if anything. But there is absolutely no doubt that BATFE is deliberately incorrectly interpreting the section of code and is pursuing illegal action.

Why don't they focus on important issues instead of getting all up in a wad on this.

 

Government agencies have to do something to justify their existence. It really doesn't matter if that something needed to be done in the first place. Action is what is important, not justification or results.

I didn't read the phooey from the gov because I, as well as a blind man knows what it's about.

Then I thought perhaps this is actually a jobs program for those that need a job. For example, you have a boat and might need someone to fire off a flare in time of peril, the gov might assign you someone that works for them of course, to be the designated flare fire-er.

Since we are told that Isis youth just need jobs, they could assign citizen x (you) a young Mohamed Mohamed Mohamed to be your safety representative.

May be it would be Juan Gonzales Rodrigues.

Get my drift :)
