Apparently there is a limit to that

up with which even the jackbooted thugs will put.

Brought to you by the nice men who have offices here http://sipseystreetirregulars.blogspot.com/2009/09/so-let-me-ask-you-something-do-you.html

OMFG is there possibly a worse piece of governmental architecture anywhere on the 9 8 planets?

While not perzackly mentioned, there is reason to believe that a causal relationship exists between that pile of bricks and the attitude expressed in the referenced web site.

Go have fun.  Look at both of them.

stay safe.

Not sure I like where this thread is going, so I'll watch it fairly closely.

The Sipsey Street bunch are a pretty radical lot, at least tacitly supporting armed rebellion.
As for the ATF, well, they have been known to incite good  citizens to at least think about armed rebellion.
The country would probably better off without both of them.
On the other hand, without organizations like the ATF there probably be fewer thinking we are on the verge of needing armed rebellion.

The Sipsey Street site was referenced only for the picture of the new ATF HQ building structure architectural rendering abomination place.

It seems that some of the folks who toil in the ATF are getting fed up with the jackbooted thuggery they are receiving at the hands of their superiors those in higher pay grades.  Is it cop-bashing if those doing the bashing are cops themselves?

Let's see if anyone else bothers to read the blog or comment on the picture.

stay safe.

No, I'm just going to hope you're recruiting for the revolution.  'Cause like I am SO down!

Those in power ought to be worried about the repercussions of trampling citizens rights.  If the Sipsey street folks worry F troop, I'm all for it.

Reading the links in the OP now.

I am not a great big fun of the Sipsey Street Irregulars (they very often reduce themselves to childish insults I cannot reproduce here).

Cleanup ATF, however is a very interesting site. I am not sure how much of it is true, however.

I did, but not anymore--I'd have to check again, but now I have no idea where it went.  =(
