Force reset triggers not going so well in court

Holy crap. That’s incredible.

There were several videos circulating when this was going down of ATF showing up to people’s homes and demanding to take the triggers.

Just more proof that Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms should be the name of a convenience store and not a federal law enforcement agency.

It’s actually not “accepted”, it pissed quite a few people off. The number of gun owners in TN far surpasses the number of false DUIs

Yeah, I read that in TN about 400 people per year are arrested for driving under the influence who do not test positive for intoxicants. Whether they were suffering a reaction from using a combination of prescription drugs or something else… who knows. Still, those cases represent about 2% of all DUI arrests. 97-98% accuracy field sobriety tests and arrests sounds to me like they’re doing a near perfect job in that regard.

Actually, there was no alcohol/drugs in their systems at all.

We can only hope that all of them are as understanding/supportive as you are.
