Gun Rights in Amexica. ATF investigating ordinary citizens in Border States.
August 24, 5:37 PM
San Diego Immigration Policy ExaminerCarl Braun
In the twenty-four counties that run along the border
with Mexico, residents have been arming up for years. They do after all
live in the most dangerous place in America. Now comes word that the
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE) is visiting
the homes of citizens in border states to verify their guns and serial
numbers. The reason given is simple though obfuscated. They are
protecting the citizens of MEXICO from illicit transfer of firearms
into THAT country.
In an article published in the National Rifle Association’s magazine, the American Rifleman, the organization warned of unannounced visits by BATFE agents to members homes in the border states ostensibly to look for
unusual or illegal weapons. The investigations were prompted by
purchases by US citizens of firearms that are illegal in Mexico. That
nearly all guns are illegal in Mexico provides ample cover it appears.
The Agents are part of a new program called “Project Gunrunner”is
deploying its resources strategically on the Southwest Border to deny
firearms, the “tools of the trade,” to criminal organizations in Mexico
and along the border, and to combat firearms-related violence affecting
communities on both sides of the border. which according to the ATF’s website:
The NRA advises members to be aware of their constitutional rights if
approached by such agents. Protection from warrantless and unlawful
search and seizure is a right found in the 4th Amendment and
there are few loopholes for the Agency to use to gain access to your
property without a warrant. For that they must also have probable cause
that you have committed a crime. According to the article that hasn’t
stopped BATFE agents from using heavy-handed tactics with citizens.
In a report written entitled: The State Of Amexica,
I assembled these twenty-four counties into a fictional 51st State to
compare it against the other fifty. The results were startling. This
51st State, which I call Amexica, is number one in crime, violent
crime, crimes involving children, crimes involving drugs, Federal
crimes and immigration crimes. It is dead last in the support from
Federal agencies in law enforcement, healthcare, education,
transportation and essential services. This is a very dangerous area
and citizens have the right to protect themselves. They also have the Constitutional right to bear arms and to refuse access to their homes by Federal Agents on what some have called a “witch-hunt.”
Immediately after Hurricane Katrina, the National Guard and Police were dispatched to citizen homes to confiscate firearms.
The step from asking for voluntary compliance with inspections
to breaking down the door forcefully in the dark of night is a slippery
one and one that all Americans must be concerned about. In a video
these attacks and are described.
Anyone who has had visits by BATFE and asked to show
their firearms are encouraged to seek legal representation and to
notify the NRA’s Office of Legislative Counsel at 703-267-1161. Anyone
who has information about illicit transfer of firearms across the
border into Mexico is advised to call BATFE at 1-800-ATF-GUNS (1-800-283-4867)
