Authorities complain that airline regulations make it tougher to transport a dog to Puerto Rico than a suitcase full of guns and ammunition.
Yeah, and Teddy Bears are more highly regulated than guns--at least when it comes to flammability of stuffing and plastic eyes that can't be pulled off and swallowed.
Good grief.
It's true here, too. There is no requirement to certify your firearm has had current shots. You don't need to put it in an approved pet handling cage. And you don't have to pay extra for the container it is in as long as you haven't exceeded your luggage allotment.
Heavens!
Oh, and by all means never transport firearms less than 8 weeks old, and you may want to place an old blanket in their container for comfort.
Looks like the creepy BATFUers have found themselves another apples and oranges sound bite to exploit. And "fair and balanced" FOX News is either too dumb or complicit to dig just a tiny bit deeper.
The BATF is one of those government agencies that should be re-evaluated, set up as a smaller department, and the surplus shipped down to the US-Mexican border to do something useful, like protecting citizens.
