actually the best questions that could be asked are just what percentage of murders in this country are committed with SBRs, rifles with bump stocks and Rifles with pistol braces? The number is incredibly low. According to the fbi's 2019 statistics (oddly no newer ones that might show the lie in all of this) some number less than 5.25% of the total murders committed with rifles, when the weapon is known. These rifles being a subset of all rifles but not broken down in the stats.

The problem with ATF is that they are tasked with violating the Bill of Rights. They also suborn entering into conspiracy to treat people as pre-criminals to the network of private FFLs as gate-keepers to access to firearms. The whole firearms regulation system is an illegal scheme where the people have to beg permission from the FBI NICS center in DC to exercise their right to purchase a new firearm. Neither of these secret police existed at the time of the founding, and the very nature of their mandates is unconstitutional relative to the Bill of Rights and inalienable rights described by the founders.

The ATF isn't the only three letter agency that's pulling this trick. As a RC modeler, we were assured that we were not to be touched, the FAA is now charging us a tax on each model airplane I build, in a registration fee and setting minimum ages at which we can start teaching our kids how to fly. It's killing our hobby, as kids turn to other activities. All of the three letter agencies need a swift overhaul, and made to comply with the Constitution, and make it plain that the president can't change this at his whim.

@@EdibleFuture A good number of the pilots, I knew in the Air Force, (40 yrs. ago), went into the Air Force, after flying model airplanes as kids. So did many of the airline pilots, I flew model aircraft with. With the restrictions on age that the FAA has now put-on radio-controlled models, where are they going to get the next generation of pilots from? It's that love of model flying that takes a good percentage of modelers, the next step, from ground pilot to private pilot, to airline or into the military and flying for the military. I remember flying RC or Control-line models near or on base, and have pilots come watch and talk about flying them when they were growing up. To me, the FAA is shooting themselves in foot for the next generation of pilots. I raced RC planes and every time I had a race against one of the top pilot's son, a nine-year old, he beat me, I joked it was embarrassing to lose to someone that young. He'd be excluded from flying due to his age. I started at five building models with my dad, RC by fifteen, competitive in my twenties. If they can't fly until their 17 or 18, it's too late to build the skills they need to fly or build models, so they only fly already built models, and never learn the skills to build from kits or plans. Many RC pilots have gone on to build wooden full-size aircraft and fly big planes, while still enjoying models. I'm in my early seventies and still carry the love of building and designing my own competition models. Keep the FAA out of model aviation, let us pass our passion for flying our way, to younger members.
