HK Doesn't Hate You?

In the past there've been multiple references to HK's attitude toward non-MIL/LEO customers as "Because you suck. And we hate you."  But apparently that's not the case, according to one article.  The claim in the article is that HK was one of the few voices to respond to the ATF's request for comments regarding sporting purpose use of "evil black rifles".  Such a shame.
