Most of them are folks who just want to do some good. Their job could entail that the wrong folks don't get explosives, or shutting down tobacco smuggling. Being a BATFE agent doesn't automatically equate to being the long arm of the gun control lobby.

It is in the nature of any bureaucracy to grow, or for any regulation to magnify in scope. The expansion of BATFE's power is a natural inclination of business. I am entirely against its current form and the premise it was founded on.
In my opinion, anyone that seeks employment by the government has more interest in "controlling" rather than "creating."
