Not can't, won't. It is 100% false that you cannot say which agency contacted you. You choose not to, if indeed it is the case.

Uhh--hate to get like, LAWYER like and stuff but..

1. No subpoena, they can fuck themselves.

2.  Unless said subpeona SPECIFICALLY said you cannot disclose the agency involved, then under Public Records laws in every state I am aware of, and under FOIA, then you CAN disclose said agency.

3.  If the subpoena HAD a "Shut up who it is clause", then you SHOULD be afforded a right to challenge the non-disclosure.

This whole sounds fucky, and I do this for a living.....

I pay to enjoy this website because I deal with fuckwits, addicts, and liars ALL DAY LONG; this website was for general enjoyment and to talk gun stuff.  You disclose MY personal info absent a subpoena that I as an aggrieved party have a right to challenge, and we are going to have a problem.

This guy knows some stuff. I also know some things.

Seems very fishy.

A gov’t agency can certainly subpoena such info, and arfcom must comply and provide the info, and the gov can certainly have a Judge signed non-disclosure order attached. But Federal LE agencies generally don’t send out official “don’t do that” emails.

Plus, what a chicken shit explanation. A group of folks getting together to buy stuff, MIGHT not pay state sales tax, so no more group buys??? Might as well shut down all of the EE, because some guy MIGHT buy a gun and shoot someone.

That’s either the most bored Federal Agent in the country stirring up shit to look like he’s doing work, or there’s more to the story. Or someone is being dishonest.

Seems like if this is true, arfcom should lawyer up and fight it.

It would seem a more simple "Hey guys, the Group Buy forum doesn't get much traffic anymore and we have decided that moderation of the forum isn't worth the time.  We are officially closing it down."

This thread...if a troll thread as I can only believe it is, seems quite...odd.  It is a troll thread, right?  What was the other "troll thread" that one of the site staff or mods made a couple years back that caused quite the commotion?
