To point out the most simplest of facts... The BATF is a tax collection branch of the IRS. The current version, in the words of The Beekeeper, "a tax collection agency gone mad", is responsible only to collect tax. It is not responsible to enforce law. What sort of agency California creates is first California's business, but the rest of the nation will be watching, because to quote Grimshaw from the supper table, as he looks out at his children.... "The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.."

Because to statists, "a good idea is a good idea!" and you can never have too many government thugs to threaten the people and keep them in line.
