National Gun control advocate David Chipman to be Biden’s nomination for BATFE director

[RVTECH]

Isn't putting this bubblegum hat in charge of the ATF like putting someone in charge of the department of fish and wildlife that loathes both fish and wildlife?

Well, probably not as I do NOT believe the ATF as a whole is on the side of gun owners or the 2A so why would they choose a leader who would be any different than the rest of the organization.

I am sure the DFW IS probably largely in part ON the side of the fish and wildlife and anyone being considered as the 'leader' would most likely be as well.

I must just be looking at this the wrong way...

It would be a lot like making a wolf your sheep dog.

Why, here's a picture of Chipman at Waco looking all macho and badass. He taught those women and children a lesson they'll remember for the rest of their lives!

Not Chipman per GOA:

So
Is that not Chipman
or not Waco?

Reading the comments there is quite interesting, and lots of good points made!

Doesn't ultimately matter.

He's still a ¢unt.

I don't get it. GOA says Chipman is less fit than the guy in the pic from 28 years ago?
i hate to point this out but I am by no means as fit as I was 28 years ago. I would guess that statement is true for 98% of all men over 55.
Using that as a reason it might not be Chippie is pretty weak sauce.
Regardless, I agree with @SonicBlue03

If he took the credit for the photo, regardless of whether its him or not... it's still distasteful.

I don't think they mean physically fit, I believe they mean generally fit - mentally, emotionally, philosophically and experience.

I don't know how you can infer that from the article
Here's the quote
"In that commercial, they released photos of David Chipman at Waco, TX. You can see that Chipman is… less fit than the man in the DailyMailOnline photograph."

You're reading a lot into those three dots after "Chipman is"
and again, regardless of the validity of the photo
After watching the questioning I still believe Chippie is a "{See You Next Tuesday
and a sworn enemy of our Second Amendment rights.

I thought you were talking about the articles/statements where they say he is not fit for the position of ATF director.

Oh no.
I was referring to the anti-gunners implying that the photo couldn't be Chipman because he's old and dumpy, not young and fit like the guy in the photo (from 30 or so years ago)

I agree with the assessment that he is unfit for the leadership of the BATFE (or AFT for the senile)

That picture is just wrong - and very disturbing....

Maybe if he were competing with Michael during the last administration... but he just looks like an idiot right here.
