Will Grigg?s Liberty Minute

April 1, 2008

For nearly a decade, gun dealer Ryan Horsley of Twin Falls, Idaho has been harassed by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, an incurably corrupt agency that has no constitutional excuse to exist.

Horsley filed a federal suit against the ATF. After the trial, he was taken aside for a conference by Federal Marshal David Meyer. The Marshal pulled out a huge dossier on Horsley, including numerous items downloaded from his personal blog.

Meyer informed Horsley that under a new law, the so-called Court Security Improvement Act, it was a federal offense to ?intimidate? certain federal officials, including ATF employees. Meyer then told Horsley: "Under this law you can be arrested, and I have no problem coming down to Twin Falls and arresting you."

Horsley?s only supposed offense was to criticize a federal agency that threatened his livelihood. Apparently, to the Homeland Security State?s enforcers, that?s tantamount to terrorism.

Let us take back the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free.
