Another BATFU Raid

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), Flint Field Office, executed federal search warrants Thursday, Aug. 14, at the Highland Gun Barn, located at 2525 M-59, Highland, Mich., and the Otisville Gun Barn, at 12163 M-15, in Otisville, and arrested Gabriel Kish III and Deborah J. Summers for dealing firearms without a license. The Otisville Gun Barn is licensed by ATF. However, the Highland store is not licensed due to their license being revoked by ATF in 2004 for violating the Gun Control Act.

Anybody have any info on this?

"Those who knowingly violate the federal firearms laws should be held responsible for their actions," said Special Agent in Charge Thomas Brandon of the ATF Detroit Field Division.

What happens to those who knowingly and willfully violate their oath of office, betray the Constitution and Bill of Rights daily?

Why, they get off scot-free, of course. No one has held them accountable, Not the courts, as they are in cahoots with the rest of the gov't, nor us.

I've got to ask just how they could have done something to get the Highland store license revoked without having the other one yanked as well.

Gosh, you don't suppose they did something really TERRIBLE, like leaving a blank place on a form or ... nah, probably just didn't dot all the "i"s or something naughty like that.

Just how long are Americans going to put up with this insanity, and the lie that it makes them safer?

The link yesterday about the man wanting to register his plastic-pipe POTATO GUN had ATF regulations Q&A. Separate locations of the same business run by the same people do indeed need a separate license. Maximum harassment. Senselessness. U.S. Government-approved.
Don't worry, the ATF Modernization and Reform Act will fix everything. (sarcasm)
Meanwhile, a local drug dealer is sentenced after a four-year multijurisdictional investigation comprised of 66 witnesses (22 of them law-enforcement) and 17 folders of evidence presented in court, taking more than an hour. The man made $100,000 a year supplying cocaine, heroin and marijuana.
267 years, with 247 suspended.
20 years.
He knew what he did was illegal, I'm guessing.
Is he a bigger threat to the public than Gov. Tim "Million Moms" Kaine?
Someone will replace him by next month, if they haven't already.
If government agents had to do any REAL work, they wouldn't have time for the Inquisition. Hand 'em a shovel, or a spatula or something.

Hey Defender, don't worry Kaine is a moron. I haven't heard one intelligent thing come out of his mouth yet.
