'This is kind of psychotic': Can it get more romantic than the ATF's Valentine's Day tweet?

Earlier we told you about The Democrats’ “heartfelt Valentine’s Day cards” featuring Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and others that are getting plenty of attention in the form of mockery. However, The Democrats’ Valentine’s Day offering has nothing on what the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms tweeted:

Valentine's Day can still be fun even if you broke up. Do you have information about a former (or current) partner involved in illegal gun activity? Let us know, and we will make sure it's a Valentine's Day to remember! Call 1-888-ATF-TIPS or email ATFTips@atf.gov. pic.twitter.com/OdDIPdIzkr

If the ATF wanted some Twitter attention, they got it:

Come for the “WTF,” stay for the self-unawareness:

In a time when more Americans than ever are worried about authoritarian government action you thought this was a good idea to tweet.

This is COMPLETELY inappropriate, @ATFHQ.

What in the hell are you thinking? https://t.co/X3oJOhnXSf
