>>938723>No need, to my knowledge they publish all clarification letters anyways so that they don't get swamped with repeated questions of the same nature. Here's the relevant letter for parasails:Better than the ATF's policy of 'opinion letters are legally meaningless and only applicable to the moment they are written in. Oh, and we get to go backsies on them whenever we want.
But they are legitimate whenever we want to use them to fuck with the citizenry and illegitimate whenever they show our incompetence or contempt for liberty/consistency/basic logic'.
Ex: According to the ATF, shoestrings were not machineguns. But then they changed their mind, and literally declared shoestrings to be machineguns.
>tl;drWhy does the FAA get so much hate? (besides the laser pointer meme and 'near misses ;)' with 'drones' things)
