By now it should not be news to you that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE) is completely out of control.

Last week I told you about their “Project Gunwalker” program, where the BATFE has been knowingly funneling American guns into Mexico.

To make matters worse, one of those guns was used by a Mexican drug runner to kill a United States Border Patrol Agent.

You read that correctly…

The BATFE’s negligence and their obsession with pursuing their anti-gun political agenda cost the life of an American law enforcement officer. It’s simply outrageous.

On top of it all, the arch gun-hater himself, President Obama, has nominated a notoriously anti-gun agent to be head of the out of control BATFE.

That’s right. An anti-gun zealot is about to be put in charge of the very agency assigned to curtail your firearms freedoms. And Capitol Hill sources tell me the Obamacrats are pulling out all the stops to ram his confirmation through.

Make no mistake, Andrew Traver is an enemy of liberty and an enemy of gun owners like you and me.

He is:

…opposed to private firearm sales.
…opposed to civilian ownership of semi-automatic rifles and shotguns.
…in favor of banning all gun shows.
…and he even wants the Center for Disease Control to have oversight of the firearms industry!

This is the man that Obama wants to run the most anti-gun federal agency in existence. A man that the Brady Campaign “applauded” for his work on disarming citizens.

Despite being rebuked by the American people on election day, Obama continues to push his anti-gun agenda.

It’s important for Washington to know how you feel about this.
I urge to you to contact both your U.S. Senators at (202) 224-3121 and urge them to oppose the nomination of Andrew Traver to head the BATFE.

Andrew Traver is a man who is in favor of Chicago’s draconian and oppressive gun laws, the same laws the Supreme Court ruled against (and where my brief was quoted) in the McDonald case. Do you want those laws for your city? How about for your state?

Or, worse yet, your country?

Don’t make the mistake of thinking that Traver won’t try to enact the same jack-booted thug tactics nationwide that he did with Chicago.

Please give a few minutes of your time to contact both your U.S. Senators and urge them to oppose the nomination of Andrew Traver to head the BATFE.

Gun owners like you and me cannot stand by and let them think that the mob-style politics of Chicago work for the rest of your country. Your freedoms are worth a few phone calls.

Tell your Senator’s that the nomination of anti-gun zealots is unacceptable. Entrusting henchmen with large government agencies while no one is looking is what dictators do.

Don’t let a stooge of the Brady Campaign run the most anti-gun and out of control government agency!

You know that Obama would love to appease his pals in the anti-gun lobby. By nominating Andrew Traver, he can make them happy without endangering his shrinking Congressional cabal.

Please contact both your U.S. Senators and urge them to oppose the nomination of Andrew Traver to head the BATFE.

The simple fact is, with a president like the one we have now, we have to be extremely vigilant. He is going to continue to accomplish as much of his extreme agenda behind the scenes as he can. And when he acts, if we don’t call him out, it may end up being too late.

I don’t want that.

Which is why it is incredibly important for you to be as motivated as I am to shine a light on people like Obama and Traver as they attempt to force their liberal, freedom-hating agenda on the American people.

But I can’t do it alone.

I need you to back me up on this one.

Please contact both your U.S. Senators at (202) 224-3121 and urge them to oppose the nomination of Andrew Traver to head the BATFE and when you’re done, chip in $5 or $10 to help us continue to get the word out and fight these battles (http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/5530357:8242522776:m:1:219165064:D52F98178F350BD35 CC9A7F98D8EB99C).
