During his confirmation hearing Wednesday before the Senate, Texas GOP Sen. Ted Cruz got Chipman to admit that he supports a ban on one of the most popular guns sold in the United States.

"With respect to the AR-15, I support a ban, as has been presented in a Senate bill and supported by the president," David Chipman told Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.




"With respect to the AR-15, I support a ban, as has been presented in a Senate bill and supported by the president," David Chipman told Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.

Then, later in the hearing, Chipman — who has served as an adviser to gun control groups — caught many off-guard when he seemed to suggest that "law-abiding" gun owners could be a threat.

COTTON: "I want to turn to a second matter now, Mr. Chipman. You have called for an assault weapons ban. I have a simple question for you: What is an assault weapon?"

CHIPMAN: "Senator, an assault weapon would be, in the context of the question you asked, what Congress defines it as."

COTTON: "So you're asking us to ban assault weapons. We have to write legislation. Can you tell me what is an assault weapon? How would you define it if you're the head of the ATF? How did you define it over the last several years in your role as a gun control advocate?"

CHIPMAN: "Senator, if I'm confirmed as ATF Director, you know, my recollection is the only process by which ATF is weighed in is I know there's a Demand Letter 3 program which requires multiple reports, multiple sale reports on the southwestern border, and ATF in that program has defined an assault rifle as any semi-automatic rifle capable of accepting a detachable magazine above the caliber of .22, which would include a .223, which is largely the AR-15 round."

COTTON: "So you you believe that every weapon that takes a detachable magazine, that can take a .22 round or 5.56 in military parlance should be defined as an assault weapon?"

CHIPMAN: "Let me clarify. What I believe I just said is any semi-automatic rifle with —"

COTTON: "Okay, any semi-automatic rifle."

CHIPMAN: "What —"

COTTON: "That's the def — a detachable magazine that takes a 5.56 or .22 round should be defined as an assault weapon?"

Instead of confirming the bastard take him out and string him up.
Crazy but not stupid!

Sick Of Silence

With all these lawyers with cameras on the street i'm shocked we have so much crime in the world.

There is constitutional law and there is law and order. This challenge to law and order is always the start to loosing our constitutional rights.

Frauditors are a waste of life.

These leftists keep issuing the GOP ammunition (pun intended) for 2022. The question is will GOP candidates load the weapon?

That's a great question...
God I hate these people! There used to be a time when they'd at lest lie, now these Marxists are in our face telling us what they want to do, and not a single PUB calls them idiots for not understanding our Constitution.
This is a perfect teaching moment!

Sure, Cruz and the like do a good job, but they shouldn't be the only ones, there should be a concerted voice against these Marxists.
Each and everyone on our side should have a tone of incredulous and concerted in this tone of absolute nonacceptance.

I couldn't agree more.
Every one of us needs to call our representatives in DC and tell them vote NO on this commie jackass being confirmed.

Cruz and Cotton have been doing a great job exposing this authoritarian, anti-constitutional, communist.
This guy is quite a character .... we don't need near the ATF or any position of power.

"Chipman has publicly defended and justified the Waco raid.

"I worked for the government for 25 years, and I understand how trust in government has been harmed," Chipman wrote in response to a question on Reddit about Waco's ramifications on public trust. "Please remember, however, that it was agents on the ground who let the public know the truth about these incidents when some sought to cover-up inconvenient truths."

In that same thread, Chipman lied that "cult members used 2 .50 caliber Barretts [sic] to shoot down two Texas Air National Guard helicopters." In reality, none of the helicopters — again, secured thanks to government officials' lies about a meth lab — were successfully shot down.

Chipman has offered the same derision for the Second Amendment that almost any other potential Biden nominee would. On his LinkedIn page, he called for all illegal gunfire to be investigated as "potential homicide." Since retiring, he has worked with Gabby Giffords's gun control organization.

Elections have consequences. With Democrats in total control of Congress and the White House, Republicans can't expect every nominee to be much more than merely qualified. But Chipman is an authoritarian who opposes gun rights and believes in the use of government-sanctioned violence to achieve leftist ends. This isn't someone who just participated in one of the most militarized and unjustified civilian massacres that resulted in the death of dozens of children. He makes excuses for it even now. If he can justify using lethal force that put children in danger, he can easily justify seizing your AR-15 or whatever other gun he decides is an assault rifle."

-------------------

Jimmy Carter would have LOVED a guy like Chipman.
I was *expecting* Biden to put up a guy like this - a THUG loves a THUG who will do his THUGGARY for him.

There's a lot of articles written about Chipman - he's been an outspoken critic or any kind of gun ownership, which is NOT the duty of the ATF - turning law abiding Americans into criminals.   The size of the gun, or magazine, or gun's color have never contributed to a single murder, or accidental discharge.  The lack of *educaton* on Gun Safety ... never seems to get mentioned. 

So, why aren't Kennedy, Cotton & Cruz asking, "What would you, Mr, Chipman, propose to educate Americans on safe gun handling to prevent accidents - or do you see your role in government as a gun confiscator?"

That should be the message from everyone of our Reps. The moment he exposed himself as a gun grabber, they all should have stood up and said, Get The Fuck Out!

It's time the GOP stood for the country and not themselves.
