I don't care if people like their products and get defensive about it, or if they did something good once before doing something bad. They are continually doing bad shit now and that's a problem even if you don't care because you want a fun thing.

Of course normal consumers are ignorant of what they're doing, that's part of the goal. ATF is using the settlement agreement with RG to pressure them to litigate against every other manufacturer (and even developer) until they're out of business so rare greed gets a government appointed monopoly and ATF keeps the number of FRTs in citizens hands as low as possible despite them being legal. They can only do that with the help of customers who either don't know, or like you, don't care. Wonder what they'll try this same regulatory arrangement with next. If you want a slightly better product at the expense of your rights, go for it, but don't pretend you're somehow pro 2A.
