NYT Sounds The Alarm on the ‘Drastic Retrenchment’ Going On at ATF

Proponents of the changes [to ATF rules] point out that some of the reversals would return regulations to what they were only a few years ago, before President Joseph R. Biden took office. After a series of deadly mass shootings, Mr. Biden signed into law gun control measures, ending nearly three decades of gridlock over whether and how to regulate firearms.

The divisiveness illustrates the complicated landscape for gun policy.

“With the Biden regulations that we got and put in place, we advanced the ball,” said Kris Brown, the president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, one of the country’s biggest gun control organizations.

But the Trump administration’s approach “takes us back 100 years,” she said. “It’s really decimating A.T.F.’s ability to regulate this industry.”

A White House official said the administration’s policies reflected Mr. Trump’s commitment to ensuring that Americans could exercise their Second Amendment rights, accusing the Biden administration of bypassing Congress and using the regulatory process to restrict gun rights. …

Since his first run for office, Mr. Trump has positioned himself as an ardent supporter of gun rights. In the run-up to the 2024 election, he vowed to be “the best friend gun owners have ever had in the White House.” Days after being inaugurated, he signed an executive order instructing the attorney general to scrutinize what he described as “ongoing infringements of the Second Amendment rights of our citizens.”

    ” ‘With the Biden regulations that we got and put in place, we advanced the ball,’ said Kris Brown, the president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, one of the country’s biggest gun control organizations.”

    1. What “Biden regulations”? Those were not ‘regulations’. They are intentional violation of law and Constitution and creation of defacto-law by self-re-interpetation and ‘interpretation’ to favor a tyrannical and violent and weaponzied-law-enforcement agenda to exercise power neither the law or Constitution ever intended for our government to have.

    2. You didn’t “advance’ anything except the agenda that terrorized and killed innocent people at gun point by Biden’s armed thugs.

    No, we have not gone back “100 years”. We have gone back 250 years to the constitution and the rule of law principals which was something Biden ignored with his tyrannical weaponized-government-against-the-American-People.

    Kris Brown – it made you really happy to be a part of the Biden tyranny and now you are sad its coming to an end. Too bad you left wing lying POS.

  6. Now if only Congress would get off of their duffs and pass legislation to put the changes into law, the next Dem President could not change it back on a whim.

    About that [staged, left wing White Supremacy] Patriot Front pic on the D.C. Metro, you know the one where there just so happens to have been a journalist for a left wing news org that takes a pic, a journalist that never takes the D.C. Metro, and that black lady now being compared to ‘rosa parks’ – yeah, the one the Patriot Front and journalist made sure had a seat and was left alone to become the center focus of the pic as soon as her crazy settled down. Well…
