BATF hate America?
BATF hate America?
Why does the BATF seem to be such an obstacle for those of us who are law abiding citizens who desire to own an overly regulated product? Is their primary existance to undermine freedom and to plant the seeds of paranoia? I just dont get it
Re: BATF hate America?
Theyre a LOT better than they were under Janet Reno but theyre still doing whats a thankless job. They are enforcing inane laws that are poorly written. I dont like cops that pull me over for speeding either.

Re: BATF hate America?
I really hope the BATF(collectively) loves America and doesnt see it as a job to molest Americans and their rights for ensuring we "dont exceed what they think we should or shouldnt be doing under the Constitution" . Just love freedom
Re: BATF hate America?
I see you're from Oregon, which confirms my suspicion that you must be smoking something if you think BATFE has your best interest in mind.
Re: BATF hate America?
It shouldn't be a surprise that an agency placed in the role of regulating a given product would foster in itself an adversarial mindset against the users or makers of the product.
It's just a typical us-versus-them attitude.
You can expect to see the same behavior in grade schoolers. This is just scaled-up.

Re: BATF hate America?
Yeah, I think this is a good way to look at it. They are people, and it is a job that'll put food on their table. And there's nothing that says they're all crawling through your bushes at night to take away your guns. However, it's likely any politicians tied to their organization are scary bastards.YugoRPK wrote:Theyre a LOT better than they were under Janet Reno but theyre still doing whats a thankless job.

Re: BATF hate America?
i have always wondered. whats stopping cartel from making there own weapons? why they need guns from the USA. AK/silencer can easily be produced especially when you have lots of $$$. the cartels can build million dollars subsmarine to smuggle drugs to US. But cant build guns.

Re: BATF hate America?
Guns are cheap and widely available . Why spend millions developing a homegrown arms industry when they can be smuggled in with a few payoffs to customs officials or on the backs of donkeys. Smuggling drugs into the US is more problematic. Even if they arent getting guns hand delivered to them by our ATF there are still many,many ways to get them. I have no doubt that many if not most of the guns in Northern Mexico came from the US and were smuggled into Mexico illegally. We have guns, they have drugs.Transformers0704 wrote:i have always wondered. whats stopping cartel from making there own weapons? why they need guns from the USA.

You need to back the F--k up about my state, 'cuz I'll bet there are plenty of dopers where you live who'd curb-stomp ya in a second for a dime-bag.700PSS wrote:I see you're from Oregon, which confirms my suspicion that you must be smoking something if you think BATFE has your best interest in mind.
While I like reading Yugo's posts and think he's a decent guy, I also have to point out that he recently moved here from Washington... not that we aren't very glad that he chose us over them.
The more right-thinking shooters we have living in the great state of Oregon the better.

Well Yugo, since you are obviously considered a pot-head once you become a resident by "some" dumb-ass people I can now clue you in to where the really good s--t is being grown.
Here goes...
Go down the east gravel road about six miles and turn right at the old yoga tipi.
Take Forest Service road 12 for another 10 miles, past the Chik 'N Dik Cafe, until you see a field with twenty brown cows and one white cow grazing in it.
Kill the white cow, we're sure he's a DEA informant.
There is a trap door in the field, knock three times on the door, whistle the theme song to "Star Trek", and a baggie of herb will be handed to you.
Hit that chronic hard my brother, rinse, lather, repeat as needed... it's what all us Oregonians do in our spare time.
PS: Don't give any to 700PSS, the last time he got stoned he started crying about the weed having opium in it or some s--t... then he pissed himself.

Re: BATF hate America?
I hate the pothead association being I'm from Oregon. Drugs are for scumbag coward loosers. Really. If you hate life that much to try and avoid the toils of life and have to escape through chemical dependancy then you should be part of the death with dignity program In that case I vote Democrat
Re: BATF hate America?
Sorry, dude. It's just the stereotype of left-coast politics. Glad to know there are some good and decent folks like you holding ground out there. Beautiful place anyway.
