There’s a reason the mainstream media like to endlessly focus on climate change, identity politics and, of course, foreign wars. It keeps you from noticing the irony all around us—the latest being Hunter Biden’s ‘not guilty’ plea to felony gun charges.
It seems federal law prohibits folks addicted to illegal substances (uh…including crack cocaine) from possessing firearms. The same law, it turns out, that the Supreme Court is currently reviewing with regard to a similar prohibition for ‘domestic abusers.’1
Wow, what timing.
While the ‘big guy’—that would be President Biden for the uninitiated or the press—seeks to arbitrarily strengthen gun control laws for law-biding citizens, his son is claiming an unfettered Second Amendment right based on a Clarence Thomas decision the President himself said “contradicts both common sense and the constitution and should deeply trouble us all.”2
Please, make it stop.
The Democrat/media complex cover up of Hunter’s laptop in order to throw the 2020 election was bad enough, as was the Biden financial frontman’s initial sweetheart plea bargain from a corrupt Justice Department.3
But for sheer chutzpah, this one takes the cake.
The high court’s decision in Bruen solidified the justices’ reliance on “text, history, and tradition” in Heller and MacDonald to significantly buttress an individual’s right to keep and carry firearms.4
Liberals feigned outrage, in the same shrill way they do after a spike in mass shootings that have conspicuously coincided with societal decay, mental illness (and perhaps a growing reliance on pharmaceutical intervention to treat it) and a deliberate degradation of law enforcement.
