The last time this happened, there was a multi-day stand-off with FBI, @UnfilteredGarbage. <:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586> though, that situation was caused by the Federal Gov't trying to seize land through eminent domain.

@Samaritan™ even better, some place gets you sick you can make everyone on the planet aware of it through the power of the internet

@Jeremy what, Ruby Ridge?

That's one.

Eminent domain has some validity

The ATF is factually unconstitutional

But, that's what happens when you resist the government.

Abolish the fucking ATF

Me literally eating bugs. @Jack of Trades

@Scale_e Do you get salted roaches too?

Tonight crickets tomorrow dog meat

I don’t like them. I stick to the grasshoppers and crickets.

I've heard horror stories of the ATF

Yeah, another instance of my rights being violated was the county coming out to my property, attempting to fine me $1,500 per chicken running around my neighborhood, simply because the wild chickens were seen in my property.

Makes beer taste fkn incredible.

Like people declaring they have illegal auto rifles and then getting fucked hard for it despite handing them in

Even if they are caged, you can't have them, not even as pets.

You'd think a Bureau that specializes in Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms would be more fun to hang around with.

@Jeremy ahahaha no. Fuck outta here with that. They could take my ass to court for that fuck them

What the fuck is the regulation on animals you can own?

So, I guess I'm responsible for every animal that flies over or lands, crawls or croaks, within my property.

@Samaritan™ they usually just show up to execute dogs without warrants

It's the local government municodes, Sam.

Hahah I've seen a bunch of videos of that

I’ve got some Korean friends, they reckon dog meat is fantastic.
I wouldn’t eat it myself. But the point is it’s in demand enough that you don’t really need to trick folks into eating it.
Pork is cheaper.

The ATF is the only federal institution that can
>write its own laws
>interpret its own laws
>enforce its own laws

You need to move you can't be successful in such a repressive environment

The ATF shouldn’t exist.

@UnfilteredGarbage, exactly. I had to type up and copy a series of documents and gather witness statements for a week, because of it.

Cost me a lot of my time.

Well they can't actually WRITE their own laws. They just get a total pass from Congress when they ignore the actual laws wholesale.

Wow I didn't know that

It’s an entire agency designed to fuck with people who haven’t hurt anyone.

Okay I'm onboard with abolishing the ATF

The ATF was given radical amounts of jurispruditial power because they were intended to be a nearly-militant group to combat organized crime during the Prohibition era.

And then their powers were just never fucking revoked

Yeah, ATF should be done away with.

In fact following the 74 AWB their powers were expanded
Despite gun crime having fallen every year since 1974

Their purpose is literally prohibition imao

To this day

I recall the argument the BATF came up with to explain why the Branch Davidians weren't found to possess the M2 Browning .50 cal. machinegun which was the sole basis the ATF alleged for their warrant in the first place... "it must have evaporated in the fire".
