Interesting fellow...his other claim to fame is manually entering a code for Boones Farm wine to purchase $62 a bottle wine at a Kroger self-checkout. Employees said they busted him when they suspected him of repeatedly doing it.

In the OP the guy was an ATF agent attempting to confiscate a shotgun from a prohibited person, who called 911 on the ATF Agent.

A lot with this guy that you can't make this stuff up...

This is like the Abwehr beating up an SD agent, or an Imperial Army Kempetai agent getting beaten up by the Navy Kempetai.

Can't they BOTH lose?

So I wonder if there will be any self reflection on the part of the ATF agent in how suspects are to be treated in the future?

Based on his wine buying habits, I'd guess that self reflection is not a quality this guy possesses.

They will use the excuse that he's an alcoholic. So instead of firing him, they will put him through rehab.

No, they'll assign him to liquor enforcement.

So what's that say about the cops who are assigned to the vice-squad busting hookers?

Those Cops are about to get raided by a dozen ATF agents with fun switches at about 6:30am.
