I'm not saying people should be harassed, but if there is intel about an illegal drug or weapons shipment that's happening and the i's can be dotted and t's crossed for it to happen legally, then why shouldn't they? Interdictions happen quite a bit based on intel.

On another note ATF is actually part of DOJ, not Treasury. http://www.atf.gov/about/
