The last sentence of the second video is great.  Zero out the ATF official's salary who is responsible for illegally pushing beyond their authority to restrict Americans.  I'd go a step further and pass regulations that a clerical error does not constitute mandatory shutdown of your business.

After watching all 3 videos in the OP that Joe posted I am happy to see we are not completely left at the whims of the Administration and a rogue federal agency. 
 

While I do not own an AR pistol or a brace I think it’s laughable that anyone could see them as easily concealed or a threat to society. The threat to society is the legal system that keeps allowing scum to live free and continue to be scum while law abiding citizens suffer. It’s Cancer on both fronts. 
 

Thank you @Subdeacon Joe for posting those videos.

The whole short barrel rifle was in the nfa because they were going to have all pistols be nfa items and didn’t want people getting around that by shortening rifles.  When they took pistols out of the nfa, the sbr didn’t get removed.   Based on heller, if a pistol brace is a SBR, they are in common use.   Making the nfa for SBR’s unconstitutional.   
 

the bigger problem as pointed out is agencies redefining terms to make people criminals without any oversight from voters.  Started with Trump and bump stocks and has become much worse under the Biden administration.  Unfortunately it takes years in the courts to undo a simple administrative rule.

Yep, people tend to forget how long things take. The Declaration of Independence was in 1776. The 2nd Amendment / Bill of Rights was ratified in Dec. 1791. Over 15 years later.

To add to that, first the Convention had to break the unbreakable Articles of Confederation.

 

Then we come to the Bill of Rights.  The smaller state greatly feared being dominated and pushed around by the larger and more populous States (sound familiar?), and so insisted that even more checks be added. Here is the Preamble to the Bill of Rights:

 

PREAMBLE TO THE BILL OF RIGHTS

Congress of the United States
begun and held at the City of New-York, on
Wednesday the fourth of March, one thousand seven hundred and eighty nine.

THE Conventions of a number of the States, having at the time of their adopting the Constitution, expressed a desire, in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers, that further declaratory and restrictive clauses should be added: And as extending the ground of public confidence in the Government, will best ensure the beneficent ends of its institution.

RESOLVED by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled, two thirds of both Houses concurring, that the following Articles be proposed to the Legislatures of the several States, as amendments to the Constitution of the United States, all, or any of which Articles, when ratified by three fourths of the said Legislatures, to be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of the said Constitution; viz.

ARTICLES in addition to, and Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America, proposed by Congress, and ratified by the Legislatures of the several States, pursuant to the fifth Article of the original Constitution.
