Maybe we should try to get these people who work for the ATF audited by the IRS. Find out who they are and then tip them off as tax cheats. I'm sure they would like being given the same anal probe they they seem to like dishing out.

No rights are less important than others.
This is an absolute statement. My observation is that there are no absolutes.

Over many thousands of years of human culture, the very idea of "rights" has gone through so many permutations as to be unrecognizable from one epoch to another. What is within the field of "rights" under consideration? Exactly what we have today? More? Less? Do we have the perfect amount?

How this applies to this thread is entirely debatable; just as absolute statements are of debatable value.

I figured you'd have monkey bars, to show off your pythons; the long hair, flowing in the wind, that was just poetic license.

Yeah, sorry about the Cookie Monster eyes... kind of missed the effect I was going for there.
