and do you have a warrant, Agent Asshole?
Might be time to finally order one of these: Amazon.com: Come Back with a Warrant Doormat: Kitchen & Dining
This story sounds a little fishy to me. Most likely they are investigating the few thousand guns recovered in Mexico.
They are chasing down leads to see if there is any person supplying them from the US, they are doing their job. I doubt they are randomly knocking on doors of NRA members asking "can we count your guns?"
There is a big hoopla about the guns coming from the US recently and these agents are doing their jobs by following up on it,no need to dig the moat and bury the guns as of this time.

They do this kind of garbage all the time.
According to that first story the poster lived on the border and was doing something with "receivers" etc. If I have to use my detective skills I would guess that since he is within 2 miles from the Mexico border and was transferring receivers and assembling them,they were investigating it. That is one of their duties.
Then again I could be wrong, might be a BATFE gun grab and they are coming for all of us next! Oh only if we live on the border or have guns that were previously listed as stolen and recovered in Mexico..oh and we are assembling completed guns from receivers only seconds from the border.
I am sure I am totally wrong.
You are. Good of you to realize your mistake.
The poster on ARF was not "doing" anything illegal, detective, but in your opinion you believe that proximity to the border warrants "investigation"? The person in question is serving in the U.S. Airforce, and has no record.
You and I both know that the stories about the Mexican cartels being armed from U.S. straw purchases is a load of manure. They are just trying to drum up BS charges to appear relevant and try to avoid budget cuts.
These goons do this all the time, but it is good to know that on a 2nd Amendment site they have defenders.
Enlightenment comes first from the admission of lack of understanding.My fault.
I was wrong,those stories definitely paint an accurate picture. We both know the press is super accurate and un-biased.
Years of LE experience have failed me.

I'll be digging the moat, but bury my guns? Never!This story sounds a little fishy to me. Most likely they are investigating the few thousand guns recovered in Mexico.
