So after reviewing all that I wrote above, I'm giving 5 to 1 odds the nra will oppose the revocation of this guy's ffl license (oh my, redundancy, 'license').

You be sure to let us all know when that happens, OK?

In the past, the NRA has unsuccessfully supported congressional bills that would rewrite the licensing law so that ATF could levy fines and other penalties short of revocation.

The operative modifier is "in the past." They were not arguing this case. But you be sure to let us know if and when they do.
