[QUOTE="Frederick, post: 2945624, member: 17825"] transferring the ATF's responsibilities to a larger investigate branch like the FBI or DEA would simply result in greater funding and resources for their activities. At least with all the powers concentrated in this smaller branch, as long as the NFA is around at all, we can limit the ATF's ability to receive the funding necessary to complete it's 'mission'. If the FBI or DEA gets a hold of the enforcement powers, it would be trivial for a future liberal/democrat administration to prioritize ATF enforcement duties of an existing branch and the resources granted to it by Congress. You can reign in the ATF, it's a lot harder to reign in the FBI, administratively and legislatively speaking. [/QUOTE]
