A spokesman for the CCRKBA discusses the problem with the President’s selective support.
As the trial for Hunter Biden begins, his father, President Joe Biden, has voiced nothing but strong support for his son, stating he “did nothing wrong.” But in doing this, Joe has managed to send mixed messages about whose gun rights he selectively supports.
“Joe evidently wants to protect his son’s Second Amendment rights,” said Alan Gottlieb, chairman of the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms, in a press statement, “but he doesn’t care about anyone else’s gun rights. His half-century of activity in Washington, D.C., supporting every gun control restriction to come along, proves it.”
Gottlieb continued, “Joe Biden obviously knew his son had a serious drug problem at the time he bought the handgun at a Delaware gun shop. What else did Joe know, and when did he know it?”
Considering how many people have been convicted of federal felonies for lying on their Form 4473 (as Hunter has done), it’s only fair he gets the same treatment as everyone else. But it wouldn’t be a surprise if Joe tries to exempt his son.
“There is no way anyone could misunderstand the question about drug use on the 4473,” Gottlieb said. “Joe Biden has stated he will not intervene if his son is convicted, but how can anyone believe a guy who says the border is secure, the economy is great and who claims to be a ‘Second Amendment guy’ while also working to ban an entire class of firearms and turn the right to keep and bear arms into a government-regulated privilege? Joe Biden has been stretching the truth or telling outright falsehoods his entire career. In Hunter’s case, it appears the apple didn’t fall far from the tree.”
So Joe Biden apparently supports gun rights, as long as the issue falls under his own family tree. But what does this say about his beliefs when it comes to U.S. citizens?
A spokesman for the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA) joins us now to discuss the matter further.
Q&A:
- Do you believe President Biden will try to bend the law any way he can in an effort to keep his son Hunter out of jail?
- If he does end up pulling any sort of exemption – or even a pardon – how will this affect his relationship with the people that continue to support him?
- What does it say when Joe Biden seems to be fine with Hunter Biden’s gun rights, but tries to take away the rights provided to other U.S. citizens?
- Do you believe this Hunter Biden trial could affect Joe when it comes to his re-election later this year?
- Where do you see the trial going in the months ahead?
- How important a topic will gun rights be when it comes to the debates with the Presidential Election later this year?
- Where can people call in to pledge their support to the CCRKBA?
