Biden ATF nominee supports ban on AR-15

Fox News Flash top headlines for May 26
President Biden’s nominee to head the Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) bureau, David Chipman, said during Wednesday that he is in favor of a ban on AR-15 rifles.

"With respect to the AR-15, I support a ban as has been presented in a senate bill and supported by the president," Chipman told Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas. Cruz said the AR-15 was "one of, if not the, most popular rifle in America.

"The AR-15 is a gun I was issued on the ATF’s SWAT team, and it’s a particularly lethal weapon. Regulating it as other particularly lethal weapons, I have advocated for. As ATF director, if I’m confirmed, I would simply enforce the laws on the books, and right now there is no such ban on those guns."

WHO IS BIDEN'S ATF NOMINEE, DAVID CHIPMAN?

The AR-15 is a semi-automatic rifle highly popular with hunters, but it has drawn controversy after being used in a number of high-profile shootings.

Chipman said he supports Congress acting to ban all "assault weapons" and AR-15s. He said he would support adding such weapons already in circulation to the National Firearms Act, which requires registration and a tax stamp, among other restrictions.

Pressed by Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., to define "assault weapon," Chipman said that was up to Congress. But Cotton asked Chipman how he personally would define the term. Chipman said the only definition he could recall ever being used by the ATF was "any semi-automatic rifle capable of accepting a detachable magazine above the caliber of .22, which would include the .223 which is largely the AR-15 round."

Yes, he is a gun chaser, and liar extraordinaire. He once testified that he was at Waco and the Branch Davidians shot down two military helicopters.
Well, we all know that never happened, but what were 2 "military helicopters" doing there in the first place?
"Posse Comitatus" comes to mind.

[magooch]

Yet another un-American, Constitution hating idiot who should be kicked out of the country and has no busyness being anywhere near our government and certainly not in it.  This is the worst kind of criminal who seeks to subvert our rights and freedom.

[Lloyd Smale]

he said they should be taken away from law abiding peaceful americans because even they might someday go nuts and kill someone. Talk about big brother wanting to control the masses. Punish us before we even do something wrong!! Just because we might. Well using that logic we should take guns away from the secret service because theyve been TRAINED to kill and might go off the rail someday and kill someone like theyve been trained to!!

[Doublebass73]

This guy is the worst. Make sure you take a couple minutes out of your day and contact your senators even if they're Democrats. If this guy gets in we're screwed.

[Rex in OTZ]

 AR's are the foot in the door.

Tom Cotton asking Chipman if he'll prosecute Hunter Biden for lying on form 4473:

[DDZ]

Chipman is just a liar amongst many. No matter if its found that Hunter lied on form 4473 or not. He will never be prosecuted.  Chipman will do what the radical left that is in power now wants him to do. 
Him trying to explain what an assault rifle is was pathetic. They could name any rifle they feel like an assault rifle.  They could easily call a bolt action rifle an assault rifle.

  This dumb donkeybutt wants to outlaw all "assault weapons"..but when asked over and over..he can't even tell what an assault weapon is !  (4 min video)

He described it. Sorry I get a bit angry... Any semiautomatic rifle that excepts a magazine over 22 caliber including 223 which is 22 caliber... defined by this worm. The fix is in. Line in the sand.

[powderman]

My definintion is powerful, short, light weight, quick to point, and uhhhhhhh, gee, that sounds like a brush gun. CHARLIE. 

[Mule 11]

Like has been said. What line will you allow to be crossed? You need to decide. How we came to this point is moot...

[Ranger99]

IMO there's not enough AR owners
upset about all this mess.
The ones I know just puff out their
chest and say " Ain't nobody gonna
be takin' my AR's from me.  I'd shoot
em down.  . "
Yeah, how many cops and soldiers
did you plan on shooting?
Some of the others say they'll hide
everything.  Well nothing does you
any good buried in a hole. If there's
a ban, you won't be able to go to a
gun range, or transport them anywhere,
or even go shoot out in the sticks
somewhere. A game warden will
will hear you shooting and investigate.
They do here already with no bans
in place.
If you want to protect your rights, the
more you dawdle, the worse it'll be

[Mule 11]

I could not give a flying f about ar’s... If ya think all this crap is about ar’s? It’s not. It’s our guns period. Our right to bear arms, period. I could carry on... (I do care about all of our rights). My point being. That is not the only right these turds are after so I don’t focus on the ar...

That's the problem, there are too many Fudds who don't speak out against gun control because it's not something they own. What these Fudds don't understand is that the leftists don't plan on stopping once semi-autos are banned. Lever actions, bolt actions and pump actions are next on the list after that.

The time to make a serious stand was back when Reagan banned full autos. Instead conservatives looked the other way because one of our own did the banning.

This guy defined every semi rifle that accepts a magazine. 22 cal and above not just the ar platform.

 

[Ranger99]

Yeah,  1100's,  Auto 5's, Benelli/Beretta's,
10/22's, Marlin 60's, etc. etc.  will eventually
make the hit list

I've had guys around here declare that
they didn't care what happened since
all they owned and used were Remington
700's, and they didn't care about any of
that other "paramilitary " stuff those
militia people had.
Well phooey poo. The gun grabbers
have been making noise about the
" high powered sniper rifles that can
penetrate a police officer's bullet
proof vest "
If I'm not mistaken, so will every
Marlin and Winchester 30/30 rifle
that Kmart ever sold will too as
well as about every bolt action
hunting rifle ever sold

I paused this guy a bunch of times and you can’t get a single still shot of this turd that looks much better than the one you posted...

The left isn't going to stop until they've pushed us into another civil war...

[Lloyd Smale]

yup bidens turning democrats aganst republicans. Gays against straights, gun owners against non gun owners, blacks against whites, instilling hate toward or police and military and totally wiping out the middle class. Basically trying to start any conflict he can to deflect form his ineptness. While the country is fighting each other there going to completely take over and make this a socialist country. This is nothing short of a civil war. Gun control is just a small step. He needs to disarm us before his plan kicks into high gear. I really should modify part of this. It isnt biden. Hes to senile to pull this off. Its a very organized coup of the far left powerful democrats and unions and big business that are pulling his strings. They know that if it fails its his reputation that the history books will tarnish not theres. People say were close to a civil war. Truth is were right in the midst of one.

Lincoln did the same thing. Get everybody arguing, come up with a fictitious goal, for a fictitious offense,  and then,  "for the greater good ", and let the killing begin.

[magooch]

Well now we can expect for someone to try to take out the one who is at the root of this lunacy.  If successful, or not, it will only serve as a further stimulant for the gun-grabbers.  I think the only thing any of us can do is give up all of our guns and ammo.  Start with the ammo--one bullet and a time. 

If that sounds crazy; so be it, but real crazy is doing nothing until they show up at your door and demand that you forfeit your Constitutional rights.

When you think about it, this "defund the cops" strategy could very well be part of the plan.  I believe that most good police officers believe in the Second Amendment and would not participate in a gun grab.  Watch for the libs to form vigilante forces to identify and burn out the suspected gun owners.  If that sounds too crazy then maybe you missed what has gone on in Portland Oregon and Minneapolis where the police departments were attacked by rioters (liberals).

[Dee]

Doesn't sound crazy at all. Defund, then skeletonize the police departments/sheriffs offices, then replace law enforcement with military.
Then disarm us.
