Per WSJ as well as other reputable sources;


Biden to Unveil Gun Restrictions Including ‘Ghost Guns’ Measures

Facing pressure to act, president will nominate a top gun-control advocate to head Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

See link to full WSJ BATF article here.

Biden has scheduled this announcement for today (4/8/2021)

Short snippets of article:

President Biden plans to unveil new gun restrictions, including on untraceable weapons known as ghost guns that can be made from parts purchased online, and will nominate a top gun-control advocate to head the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, officials said.
<snip>
...Mr. Biden intends to nominate David Chipman, a top policy adviser to the gun-control organization Giffords, to head the ATF, a Biden administration official said Wednesday in a call with reporters. Mr. Chipman spent 25 years as an ATF agent and oversaw the bureau’s firearms programs, among other roles. Giffords is led by former Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, who was shot in 2011 along with 18 others in a Tucson-area supermarket parking lot.
<more snips>
...A senior Biden administration official characterized the actions as only the initial steps Mr. Biden intends to take, asserting that the moves fell within the administration’s authority while respecting gun ownership. Mr. Biden’s approach is a response to mass shootings but also to the causes of everyday gun violence, which disproportionately affects minority communities, the official said.

Mr. Biden is scheduled to deliver remarks about gun violence prevention Thursday.
</snips)

My relevant observations include;
Notice His/their current redefinition of "Infrastructure" in latest "Emergency" Spending/Covid/etc bill (Better try to take a quick hard-copy snapshot of what that is at the moment since it will morph/progress/metastacise(sp?) further/faster than you can imagine).
Remember when the Obama-Nation (he his administration and his minions) made it a policy to pressure any/all financial institutions from doing ANY business with their disfavored industries to squeeze the financial life out of them?
(No need for actual laws when you can just wave your magic want (Executive Action and "Guidance") to affect policy)
The last President (P -1) revoked that.
Biden said he would reinstate that financial squeeze-play.

Just wait for more thrills on the fun-house rides.

FWIW

I share your frustration about this. Kinda like nominating an oil lobbyist to run the EPA. Stuff like that just don't make sense.

What is wrong with you??? Haven't you seen all of the posts recently stating that we should just bury our heads in the sand and never discuss politics in this forum, especially the activities of the anti-gun Democrats.

And oh my gosh... never never point out that some folks here actually support and vote for the Democrats who work to chip away at the 2nd Amendment Rights of law abiding citizens. No sir.... It just ain't civil to point out that some of your fellow gun owners are helping the anti-gunners do their dirty work.

These poor sensitive guys say that political stuff makes them want to leave, even though they are among the thousands who flock to those sometimes contentious political discussions. They come like moths to a porch light, yet say they can't stand it. But the view counter does not lie. However, if you pay close attention to details, a lot of guys who rarely or never financially supported this site used that as an excuse to not donate.

Pay no attention to facts and the truth though. Best we should all just nicely discuss doubles while we slowly lose our right to own other guns and ammo. Better to remain blissfully ignorant until they finally come after our doubles too. In fact, best to just delete this Thread so nobody knows how Biden is prioritizing new restrictions and gun bans.


A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

If the oil lobbiest uses science to run the EPA why not.when an individual looks at the color of a gun to decide how dangerous it is that could be problematic.

Not really. It's kinda like nominating democrats to protect the rights of US citizens. Thank you for your transparency, are all democrats like you?

Sorry craig but it is like that. Just like it. Hence why I sympathize with your frustration. Not so sure why you can't see the similarities, but geez, one would think you could at least appreciate the support, lest try to pick a fight about it in these new times of moderating and civility.

Didn't you get the memo here...

The Dems like to point out the sexual transgressions of Republicans looking under every leaf of their lives to find something to use against them. You really can't say much about their sex lives because everyone knows that they are the party of freakazoids. What does the world think of us when the president orders the rainbow flag flown over all US embassies around the world? Group sex, great! Sex with same sex, wonderful! Little boys and girls, desirable, just don't get caught. I won't be surprised if you can marry your dog by the end of the Commyla Harris term.

It would appear that you are the pot calling the kettle black nca225.. craigd knows you will never change. Just look at how you felt your usual need to troll last week when you intruded into gjw's Easter Greetings Thread. You could have been civil, but you felt the pathetic need to dump upon the Christian beliefs of the other participants, and compare that to belief in the Easter Bunny.

And really, a belief in the Easter bunny is a whole lot more intelligent and honest than you acting disappointed that a career anti-gunner like Joe Biden would pursue anti-gun legislation or appoint an anti-gunner to head the BATF.

Well, now you can pretend I never complained about illegal immigration, welfare, personal and corporate taxes, creeping socialism, foreign policy, etc., and once again say I am a single issue voter. Because that's what you liberal Democrats do. There are some things that no amount of moderation or faux civility can change.
