Kind of old info, it was published in April 1980...

The abuses were so bad that the US Senate published a report that painted them as a rogue agency.

Here's the famous 1982 Senate Report:

I didn't even notice the date on that article. It came up on newsfeed program I use and I assumed it was a new article.

I wonder how much stuff has changed since then

...and yet things didn't get any better. The ATF started the confrontation at Waco, and when they got their asses handed to them, the FBI was called in.

They have changed their tactics now they just charge you with a crime like "Assault on a police officer" or "Interface of a police officer" Then everyone turns their back on said gun owner or owner's. There is so many people including people on this fourm that here of a gun owner getting arrested and then just "it was his fault" like the US soldier in NY that was cought with 4 30rd mags or sombody from a small town that tells police to go get bent and then gets locked up for BS charges!!!

My rule of thumb is if they are a fed, they are lieing.

And they have no Consitutional authority outside of federal land.
