Marjorie Taylor Greene Inspects ATF Inspection
« on: April 01, 2023, 08:39:35 AM »
This one was interesting, and leaves me with questions. On the face of it, one might question if MTG set this up for the PR, given she (and other congressmen) were in quick driving distance. On the other hand, if this was an unannounced inspection, how would she know to stage her group? Also, 18 ATF agents, including non-local agents, is quite fishy.

A routine inspection is usually one agent -- maybe two. And they don't wear the trademark blue windbreakers with "ATF" emblazoned across the back.

Of course, the lamestream media is reporting this in the most negative way possible -- that MTG and her entourage "interfered with" a routine inspection -- which was apparently anything BUT routine. MTG caught the ATF Public Information Officer in an outright lie -- he tried to tell her they had so many agents on site because it was a new business -- and she knew the business had been in operation for 45 years.

It also appears that she did not "interfere" in the [alleged] routine inspection. It appears that when she questioned the inspectors, they chose to abort the inspection, sit in their cars, and call in the PIO.

Every damn one of those agents that participated in that and other gestapo style intimidation "raids" swore an oath to uphold and defend the constitution of the United States.
Every damn one of them needs to spend the rest of their life behind bars.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Nah, they'll just have their FFL revoked.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.
