This is the hit piece of all hit pieces. It's got fear, it's got distortions, and it's made to combine misplaced respect and ignorance among the public for a non law enforcement agency (atf) and take advantage of your outrage over the open southern border.
CNN and the atf team up to slam the .50 cal (one of the media's favorite targets of their emotional crap), they slam gun shows, they even slam the 5.7 in a super emotional way, and they wrap it all up in the problem of the open southern border that they KNOW people are already outraged about and will agree with them about. Basically, cnn/atf is latching (leeching) onto the outrage over the open borders and using it as a vehicle to push a pro BATF/anti gun agenda.
