Recently a JPFO supporter sent a letter to the NRA asking about its position on the BATFE. As our readers know, JPFO has made it a mission to abolish that rogue agency and end federal control and regulation of your firearms.The complete response from the NRA and JPFO's response to the response can be read here (pdf file).
In their response to our supporter, the NRA spokesperson, on behalf of Sandra Froman, president of the NRA, made several statements that are contrary to what JPFO believes gun rights organizations should support.
UPDATE: I think the "preaching to the choir" comment could have been misconstrued after I read this post at The War On Guns. The comment being left anonymously was an accident. I left it myself in reply to the first comment. Sometimes, for reasons unknown to me, I don't get automatically logged in when I reply to a comment on my own blog, and when this happens, I usually don't notice it. My clichéd response was unfortunate. I should have spoken in plain language. If I had, I would have simply said, "I agree with you already, so you don't have to use your caps lock."
I usually delete these comments that I accidentally post anonymously and repost them under my own name. This time, since it has already been referenced, I'll leave it as is and I hope this update will suffice to explain things.
As I said in a comment I left at the WOG post linked above, I agree with the JPFO position that the BATF should be eliminated. Any legitimate and constitutional functions which they perform should be relegated to a new agency or agencies. Following that, a lot of people involved with their oppressive measures should be prosecuted by all legal and constitutional means.
I apologize if there were any misunderstandings caused by my lack of attention.
