Dear Patriot,
Despite all the well-documented baggage he
has, anti-gun zealot and leader of the Waco raid David Chipman,
and now President Biden's pick to lead the ATF, will be voted on
by the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday, June 17.
Could they have made a worse pick for the
person to head up the ATF?
Sign the petition to your U.S. Senators
demanding they vote AGAINST David Chipman's confirmation.
After you sign, I strongly urge you to
forward the petition link to a friend.
David Chipman said during his hearing in the
Senate last month that any law-abiding gun owner is a potential
criminal.
Did he forget the definition of
"law-abiding?"
My message below clearly shows Chipman's
record as anti-Second Amendment and his involvement in Waco,
where adults and children were tragically killed due to the
actions of the federal government.
Chipman does not belong anywhere near a
position of power over our right to defend ourselves. Sign your
petition now.
-Ron

Dear Patriot,
President Joe Biden seems hellbent on
repeating past mistakes in policy and personnel.
When Biden made his direct assault on the
Second Amendment by unleashing a flurry of executive orders on
firearms two weeks ago, hidden at the very bottom of his list was
the nomination of David Chipman to head up the Bureau of Alcohol,
Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, or ATF.
It's not a familiar name to many, but
Chipman's role in one of the worst tragedies involving the U.S.
government killing citizens on our soil cannot be denied.
He certainly doesn't deny it.
While he was an agent for the ATF, Chipman
was stationed in Waco, TX from 1993 to 1998 and was pictured in
front of the aftermath of the assault on the Branch Davidian
compound. After a 51-day standoff with the members of the
compound in February of 1993, the compound was raided by a
combination of federal agents from the FBI, ATF, and local law
enforcement.
The Branch Davidians were suspected of
possessing "illegal weapons."
Chipman later claimed that the Branch
Davidians had shot down helicopters with those weapons, a claim
which was completely refuted by a U.S. House of Representatives'
report.
The end result after the standoff,
teargassing, and gun fights instigated by the ATF was 4 dead
federal agents and 78 members of the Branch Davidians, including
25 children who were killed in the fires that engulfed the
compound.
To this day, the ATF commemorates Waco and
the agents who died without acknowledging the horrible tragedy of
all the innocent children who were killed in the raid that
followed.
And now Joe Biden thinks the best way to
recreate that kind of "success" would be to put that same agent
who was stationed in Waco, in charge of the entire ATF.
That's David Chipman and that's who he just
nominated as he was passing down his flurry of executive orders
which included the designation of more weapons as "illegal."
Patriot, I'm worried history is about to
repeat itself in the worst possible way, with David Chipman and
the ATF.
Sign the petition to your U.S. Senators
demanding they vote NO on the confirmation of Biden's extremist
pick for the head of the ATF, David Chipman.
We are fighting the Biden gun grabbing agenda
with everything we've got. Your generous donation of $50, $75, or

these dangerous attacks on the Second Amendment.
The photo of Chipman posing by the rubble of
the Branch Davidian compound is making the rounds on social media
as people are starting to discover just exactly who he is.
During the following Branch Davidian Trial,
Chipman falsely claimed that the Davidians had shot down two
helicopters with .50 cal machine guns in a brazen attempt to
justify the tragic raid.
But Chipman's resume has a lot more than the
Waco tragedy, where 25 children were killed, on it.
He's also worked for some of the most
flagrant anti-gun and anti- Second Amendment groups this country
has ever seen, including as a lobbyist for Michael Bloomberg's
Everytown for Gun Safety and later for the Giffords' gun control
group.
After his lobbyist days for those two groups,
he took a position as senior policy advisor at Giffords Law
Center to Prevent Gun Violence.
Patriot, Chipman can no longer even claim law
enforcement as his trade -- he has become a rabid anti-gun
political activist!
Without your immediate action, I suspect
Chipman has a good chance of being confirmed, despite his radical
record on gun control. But it hasn't gone unnoticed that this
was a very divisive pick.
Even Politico can see the difficult path
ahead for Biden and Chipman and detailed his extreme and
unpopular positions on guns:
Chipman supports banning assault weapons,
limiting high-capacity magazines, expanding background checks and
ending the fairly broad liability shield that firearms
manufacturers enjoy. And he has called for ATF to increase
inspections of federally licensed gun dealers and use other tools
to help curb what he calls a national epidemic.
The Biden gun-grabbing agenda is already bad
enough, but when you throw fuel on the fire with David Chipman to
head the ATF, you have the recipe for another Waco type of
tragedy, which will undoubtedly be seized on for more dangerous
gun grabs on law-abiding citizens.
It's time to sound the alarm on Chipman
before the confirmation process starts.
Sign the petition to STOP Chipman's
confirmation.
Once you've done that, please consider a
generous donation of $50, $75, or even $150 TODAY to help us
continue to hold the line and stop these dangerous attacks on the
Second Amendment.
President Biden has proven his commitment to
being the most anti-gun president we've had in at least a
generation.
The demonizing of peaceful, law abiding gun
owners, in combination with David Chipman's nomination for head
of the ATF, signal that Biden is not ready to back down, despite
his legislative agenda stalling so far in Congress.
I cannot stress enough that 2021 is a very
dangerous time for liberty. You and I must be vigilant and act
now.
For Liberty,
Ron Paul
Chairman
P.S. Staying true to their mantra of "never
let a good crisis go to waste," the Big Government elites are
showing themselves to be determined to run roughshod over the
Second Amendment while they enact their socialist agenda.
