Honor Among Thieves

Edgar A. Domenech says he thought Justice Department officials would welcome information about mismanagement at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

Instead, the 23-year ATF veteran says, Justice officials ignored his complaints and later retaliated against him by demoting him, denying him a bonus and attempting to give him a poor job review.

What, you thought Maximum Mike was interested in anything besides consolidating power?

I'm real curious as to what the "Vote Freedom First President" quote that they were going to put on an engraving outside BATFU's lair said.

Maybe "Mission Accomplished"?

Perhaps they wanted to wait until after the Democrats take office for that.

Ryan has more.

In the link Ryan provided to the ATF agent's class action lawsuit, the entire polemic is devoted to the abuses that ATF agents have suffered at the hands of their own administration.

Not one of his complaints involves ATF agents abusing US citizens.

I say okfine. Quit, agents, all of you just quit. If you can't quit because you are men and women of honor and principle, quit because you're tired of your agency giving you abuse while you deal out abuse to the rest of us.

Your agency was only created to collect taxes, anyway, not become an heavily-armed division of assault troops.

As a Jewess in the US, I want to remind everyone that America wasn't won with a registered gun. Nor are criminals stopped by talk, but rather by FIREARMS. That is why all REAL Americans put our 2nd Amendment FIRST!
