Chaffetz wants to take guns away from 'Rambo' BLM, Forest Service agents [More]That's the cold end. The hot end, where actual meaningful change can be made, addresses the constitutionality of those departments in the first place.
I could accept taking away arrest powers as a good first step. That said, infringing on having means of DEFENSE as a job condition carries with it a special relationship duty on the part of the employer to protect -- or at least it should.
I don't expect anything to come of this, but we'll know more once we have a bill number. Then we can get the GovTrack assessment on its likelihood to even make it out of committee -- anybody want to lay odds it'll be more than 2%?
Yeah, pretty cynical. I haven't been that impressed with Chaffetz actually doing anything, as opposed to making self-serving noises.
