The charges brought against President Biden’s son Hunter Biden are rarely prosecuted

We fight, We win
Hunter Biden was charged Thursday with three felony gun-related counts, including possession of a firearm by a person who is an “unlawful user of or addicted to any controlled substance." Under a plea deal that later fell apart, Biden was also charged with two misdemeanor charges of failing to pay taxes, which he later reimbursed; those charges are not included in Thursday's indictment.

Former federal prosecutor Renato Mariotti agreed. "It insults the intelligence of the American people to compare misdemeanor tax charges to a scheme to steal Top Secret documents and obstruct justice when the government asked for them back," he tweeted, comparing the charges against Hunter Biden to the recent federal indictment against former President Donald Trump. "If anything, Hunter Biden was treated harshly — those crimes are rarely charged."

The case is being overseen by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Delaware, which is headed by Donald Trump appointee David Weiss, who was named special counsel in the case.

The gun charge itself is under legal threat. A federal appeals court ruled in June that the government cannot ban those convicted of nonviolent crimes from possessing a weapon, and a federal court in Texas recently ruled — following a major Supreme Court case last year that expanded gun rights — that the ban on drug users possessing weapons violates the Second Amendment.

The gun was not used in a crime. it was not stolen. He owned it for 10 days. He never fired it. Those are the kinds of things that result in charges.
 
If Hunter is being charged with "possession of a firearm by a person who is an unlawful user of or addicted to any controlled substance" that would mean anyone seeking treatment for drug addiction or convicted of a drug crime cannot own or possess a firearm, correct? If this guy wasn't Hunter Biden every rightwinger and the NRA would be screaming that this is unconstitutional.

It's a new world thanks to leftists

Can't you fools realize most of us don't give a shit about the gun charge. It's his peddling of his father's political influence that we want to see.

???....I thought you WANTED stronger gun laws.......
 
I don't care.

None of this is about Hunter Biden.
None of this is about facts.

Republicans hate Democrats.

Democrats hate Republicans.

That's where we are now,
and that's what EVERYTHING is about.

The seething hatred that Americans have for one another has never been more palpable than it is now.

We can't be bothered to say that we just want different things.

We can't even be content to just wish each other harm.

Most of us own guns

and we shoot each other every single day.

This is the republic that so many of us believe must be preserved?

There isn't a single person on this forum who could give a sane argument for doing that.

In the end, the choice will be either a negotiated partition

or mutual annihilation. I'm probably a bit too old to see which of those two outcomes will prevail,

but I'm as certain that it will be one of them

as if I'd seen it already.

What's more, I'm caring less as to which is chosen with each passing day.

But that is not illegal so what charge would you level?

A private citizen using 'who he knows' or 'who is related to', when they have connections to rich or powerful people is one of the most common things we see in America. America is largely built on that.


It ONLY becomes illegal if the person in power interacts with that person in a way that breaks laws governing what the PERSON IN POWER, can and cannot do legally. And in this case there is ZERO evidence as everyone in the GOP admits that ties Joe Biden to any illegal actions.
 
Amazing how the MAGA militia are so celebratory over the President’s son, again, not the President, but the President’s son, be indicted, labeling it a game changer, big news, all over Fox, but their Messiah, who is running for President, getting indicted over ninety times in four different jurisdictions is hardly noteworthy

Why do you promote liars in the media. There was no "scheme" to steal Top secret documents. That's a moronic lie. :palm:

That's the law dumbass. You didn't know that. That's because you're a clueless dumbass. :palm:

If this guy wasn't Hunter Biden every rightwinger and the NRA would be screaming that this is unconstitutional.

This isn't just a stupid strawman, its laughably unhinged.
 
Can't you fools realize most of us don't give a shit about the gun charge. It's his peddling of his father's political influence that we want to see.

They want to deflect and distract with these paltry charges. The Bidens believe they are ABOVE THE LAW. ;)
 
But that is not illegal so what charge would you level?

It is against our gun laws halfwit. Grow a fucking brain already. :palm:

Amazing how the MAGA militia are so celebratory over the President’s son

Amazing how you spam the thread with your moronic lies and strawmen. There is no such thing as a MAGA militia dumbass.

again, not the President, but the President’s son, be indicted, labeling it a game changer, big news, all over Fox, but their Messiah, who is running for President, getting indicted over ninety times in four different jurisdictions is hardly noteworthy

When arsecheese erupts with his moronic strawmen, we need our hip waders.
