I am not a political savant and I don’t pretend to be. But this Hunter Biden thing is interesting. From what I understand, his plea deal included no jail time for him blatantly lying on a federal background check form to purchase a gun. Specifically, he lied about not being a drug addict.
Lying on such a form is felony and usually includes mandatory prison time. The judge in this case doesn’t like the deal because she has sent people to jail over such a crime, and I commend her.
I asked one of my good friends, who is very much a leftist, how is that defensible for those who advocate for stricter gun laws? How is it that many in the Left don’t see this as a big deal if they are all about people not breaking the law when it comes to purchasing weapons?
Hunter, you would assume, would be the perfect person to make an example out of. He was a White man who used his ultimate privilege as the son of a sitting VP to illegally purchase a gun.
