I dont think you understand how dangerous powder factories used to be before the ATF existed. I'm not a fan of the ATF, but requiring and explosive that has turned in to something massively flammable instead by mixing it with alcohol isnt the worst idea which has come out of the ATF. Go read The Chemistry Of Powder & Explosives by Tenney L. Davis if you want a history on it.

requiring the explosive
mixing it with alcohol be stored in a magazine
Charles Martinez
there hasnt been a problem in how long? so why are they suddenly wanting to reclassify and regulate shit we have no problem with doing right now?
Lincoln King
Austin Clark
are there any more than one isolated incident in 50 years?

They tried to actually go forward with this, and are only "considering" now that they got BTFO hard by everyone.
Safety regulations is one thing. They literally bar you from making or possessing (most) explosives unless you have an occupational reason for it. This is literally an infringement on the 2nd amendment, but not enough people deal with explosives to for ATF to give a fuck so nothing happens.

i concede to your point. thanks for saucing me, user. now i have to ask the logical question: is safety worth giving up our right to protect ourselves?

Oh noes, you need a FEL to run a gun powder factory.
Again, the ATF could care less. Just look at Tannerite and other binary explosives which are sold en masse both on the internet and in big box stores.
