David Chipman, who was selected by Joe Biden to lead the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, made a slew of terrifying comments about how he would lead the agency.
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.
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.

Go right ahead, pal. When Alan Gura walks out of the US Supreme Court, the binding precedent set there will ensure you never get a second shot at it. The farther you overreach, the more broad the SCOTUS ruling will be, and the dumber you'll all look.
Isn’t it something that feds that were at Waco keep popping up in leadership positions?
Oh.
Merciful Maude.
That. Nominee. Looks. As. If. He. Could. Be. The. Product. Of. Incest.
I do not know what is worse: His face bones or his speech habits.
Talk about shades of incest like the Old World royalty.
AUGH.
You have a lot more faith in the Roberts court than I do.
Chipman swore under oath in his confirmation hearings that the person in the below image is not him or any ATF agent, and that he was never at Waco during or immediately after the massacre.

That is no longer true.
The Democrats manufactured hundreds of thousands of votes in each of six critical States in a brilliantly coordinated effort. Some of their efforts were even captured on video cameras.
They did not even try to hide all that much afterwards. Some of them bragged about it. The Republicans did nothing effective to block the fraud. There was years of warning.
I will continue to vote, mostly for sentimental reasons. I have no expectation that voting, by itself, will be enough to change anything.
Additional means will be required.
"They are lying. We know they are lying. They know that we know they are lying. But they are still lying" (Alexandr Solzhenitsyn)
Should be carved into our brains:
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”
― Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956
Your post 87 should be required reading for all.
Nail, meet head.
It is a good thing that David Chipman fears the American people.

That’s funny. I was thinking the same thing about him.
SPJNK.
I didn't burn up any old people, women, and children, suckling babes. HE DID.
Guns have only two enemys...
water and politicians
They won’t knock.
One day, you will be asked at work, at the store, or by the power company “Do you own any weapons? If you turn them in you will get a FREE LOTTO TICKET!”
That will get a few.
Then those same will say “If you own weapons, you are not allowed in public without an app notifying people you are dangerous”. Then your company mandates that you must disarm as a condition of employment, you insurance company says you must to get health care, and your local grocery store won’t let you in because the app on your phone says you are a threat. Your pastor/priest will demand you disarm before going to services. Your children will be denied education unless you disarm.
By this time, the pressure on the holdouts will be so high that their spouses and children will turn on them. Faced with total loss of employment, food, and any benefits that will pretty much end it.
No jack boots.
The vaccine is a test run. Look at the tactics. Look at the goal.
Why would any gun owner with a functioning brain cell answer that question from those people? Or from any other people?
How does supporting a ban on particular firearms nice with supporting the Constitution, i.e. the 2nd Amendment?
Same reason they talk about the shot
No functioning brain cells on that subject either?
LOL
I think you nailed it.
