ATF Director Steps Down After Bullet Ban Controversy

[Chance]

Via The Hill (http://thehill.com/regulation/administration/236423-atf-chief-to-step-down):


The director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) is stepping down following controversy surrounding the agency’s proposal to ban certain types of ammunition.

The ATF announced Friday that Director B. Todd Jones is resigning at the end of the month “to pursue other opportunities in the private sector."

Wha'?

It sure reads like the political types in the White House are furious that he messed up an issue they were counting on. After all, they wanted to announce that Obama had banned cop-killing bullets from automatic assault weapons!

Damn now we've lost one of 3 employees, and the paperwork already takes months for them to look at
