Sinister move by ATF should serve as warning

I’ve often talked about the animosity many in the gun community feel toward the ATF. It’s a real thing, after all, and the ATF doesn’t seem to care very much about how they’re perceived.

Sure, they’ve tried to bust a few supposed myths, but beyond that? They’re not doing much to improve their image. Then again, it doesn’t help when they decide to overstep their bounds.

Now, the law they’re citing does indeed require gun stores to report all denied NICS checks. This is one of those things that few people really have an issue with in the grand scheme of things. After all, a denied check is grounds to at least see if the individual in question is a criminal trying to commit an illegal act.
