Ruby Ridge, Waco... yea, I can see this being true.

So is it safe to say the ATF shot themselves in the foot on this one? :twisted:

I was thinking a bit higher up and more to the center... :lol:

Oh, they're sharp shooters now?

I have to wonder how much intimidation, mrobably to loose their licenses, etc, was put on the gunshops to go along with this and not blow the whistle themselves.
The law implies that no one can give you instructions to break the law, yet this is exactly what happened.
