Quoted:
If I had my way, they would be the bureau of alcohol and tobacco, and they would be in the commerce department. Their arson investigation units would be transferred to someone else.

Wrong bill I think.

Quote from NRA:

"To that end, the “Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives Modernization and Reform Act of 2006” will soon be introduced"

Let's make sure their "annual Bar-B-Que" is cancelled.

So ... that would allow firearm training schools to own post-86 machine guns?

Quoted:
Subcommittee Chairman Howard Coble (R-NC) and ranking member Bobby Scott (D-VA) agreed on the need to focus BATFE’s efforts on enforcing current laws against serious criminals, while not pursuing petty violations or undermining civil liberties.
NRA-ILA

But if they don't go after pretty offences, how will they get any convistion to justify their existence?

p.s. Hello BAFTE Internet monitoring overlords!

LOL

I bet they could stay busy rounding up convicted felons that try to and fail to purchase guns or going after felons with guns. I guess that's too dangerous for them.

Sounds good to me, but the devil is in the details..

One, two committees and this bill could come out 180 degrees from the original intent.

They need to push these bills through and get them approved right away.

The fact that they've actually had hearings on the issue makes it a little more likely that congress will take action.

Let me know when the bills are submitted.

Oh yeah...

FUCK THE BATFE!!!

It can't come soon enough. Now they're trying to put gunsmiths out of business.

That is one reason why the NRA is pushing this.
