No, I've no hatred whatsoever for the ATF in and of itself, but this guy approved of this operation knowing exactly what the weapons would be used for and look what happened. Some kind of punishment beyond a simple resignation needs to be handed out.

What would happen to you or I if we gave or sold a weapon to someone we knew would use it to hurt or kill someone else? We'd be sitting in prison cell with a 300 pound skinhead named Bubba in a hot minute.
