ATF Chicanery Brings Right and Left Together At Last

There’s a procurement order from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) making the rounds on the gun boards which is sufficiently egregious as to piss off citizens across the political spectrum. I first learned of it from this arfcom post dated 19-March, but there are now angry threads on other Internet gun boards and at least a few left-liberal forums as well.

Apparently, the ATF have a unit dedicated to asset forfeiture, which is the tough-on-crime practice of seizing the assets of citizens if government agents suspect said assets were acquired with the proceeds of illegal activities.
