ATF prevented Straight Edge from being added to the list of domestic terrorist organizations in the pre-9/11 era. The committee was convened by FBI and had a bunch of Federal LE reps. When Straight Edge was proposed, the ATF rep shot it down furiously. Thankfully, his son was then and is now STRAIGHT EDGE.
