Is There A Lawyer In The House?

Model rocketeers need some pro bono help against an out-of-control government agency.

out-of-control government agency

Isn't that redundant? I can't think of any other kind. But as I've just came out of a 14 month fray with the IRS, my opinion may be skewed.

I didn't understand the BATF going after the rockets to start with. Maybe they need to go check at the border for a rocket motor smuggling ring, sneaking in from Nuevo Laredo. Another fine use of our tax resources.

The NAR and Tripoli already have a high powered DC law firm running a lawsuit against BATFE that has so far been pretty successful, despite this data drop from them. They do need money to support it. You can check www.nar.org for info on how to donate.

No, it's important that we steer our kids away from any interest in science and technology. Next up is a ban on Mythbusters and Legos.

I'm too old for Legos, but if they take my Mythbusters, I'll hunt them down and tie them to an Ancient Chinese Rocket Chair in Busters place.

Can you say blast off?
