“I got 35 seconds left, define it for me, would you please, sir. What's an assault weapon?” Sen. John Kennedy asked ATF nominee David Chipman on Wednesday.
"There's no way I could define an assault weapon," Chipman said.
“I'll give you one definition that ATF currently uses" Chipman continued, as Kennedy interjected that he wanted Chipman’s personal definition.
“I'm done, Mr. Chairman. I don't think I'm gonna get an answer,” Kennedy concluded.
