    Only to replace it with something more invasive, onerous, and nefarious.

    Or is that what the BATFE was???

    Nope, article says that other agencies would take over the BATF's functions. They may or may not be more invasive depending on the agency, but the BATF wouldn't be replaced by an even more nefarious organization.

    This is extremely unlikely to happen anyway.

    they wont eliminate ATf they will jsut create another agency that does the same thing but has different regulations and you will have to comply with both. Government doesnt eliminate it exacerbates

    This.

    It's not Holder's decision to elimate a department of the government. The executive has to get permission from Congress.

    You mean you can't just fire everyone who is getting ready to testify against you and make it all go away??? WTF???? I thought this was America damn it!!!

    Would that dissolve their various administrative rulings that they simply made up out of thin air into law?

    Don't be so quick to believe that... another agency would accept the rulings they like and toss the ones that people like you and I like... get to start from 0 again... It will be worse unless the .gov gets out of the weapons regulation business and that's unlikely to happen any time soon.
