Hunter Biden’s pardon has been a political crapshow for the Media who re going out of their way to explain how it is a righteous thing. Truly I don’t care for any of that other than being a good popcorn ingesting show, but what I noticed was that our usual Gun Control suspects have yet to say a thing about the gun convictions being erased by presidential fiat.
Everytown, Moms Demand, Giffords, Brady, David Hogg and assorted satellite groups, including the local Voices for Safter Tennessee have been mute. Other that the usual Thanksgiving B.S. platitudes and the eternal efforts to fundraise, Hunter Biden and his pardon appear nowhere in their timelines.
For a group of people who are not shy about shouting from the rooftops 45 seconds after something that promises income for their coffers happen, the fact that they are all decided to play the corpse of Marcel Marceau tell you that they are hurting.
The problem when you hitch your wagon to a political party, especially one with quadruple standards like the Democrats is that you open yourself to being tarred by their scandals and have to take it because they demand loyalty or else. The Gun Culture tends to be unmerciful if somebody on our side screws up and we do not shy away from accepting when we make a mistake. I believe that many cases that could have been used for political attacks came to nothing because we were already berating the culprits even louder than the Disloyal Opposition. If anything, we showed an independence of thought and morals from political organizations that made it hard for our enemies to attack us on certain issues
But Gun Control activists had to lockstep their actions with the political mandates from the Democratic party and they get to share blame in their catastrophes. And the fact that nobody has stood up and say that Pedo Joe fucked up pardoning his son for gun crimes id hurting them even more. While some airport manager gets a SWAT visit at dawn and eventually death for an alleged gun crime, the President’s son gets to skate free to go chase after young hookers with a crack pipe again.
Schadenfreude is real.
It is a deafening silence. CCRKBA has come out to condemn the hypocrisy of Joe Biden regarding the gun crime, I would expect the other 2A organizations to do so as well.
Maybe that will shame the Anti-2A crowd. Nah. I won't hold my breath.
When Gropey Joe said -- repeatedly -- that he would not issue a Presidential pardon for Hunter, every single person I know to the right of Karl Marx looked at each other and said, "Yes, he will. On his way out, he will."
Turns out we were right.
My first thought when I heard about Hunter's pardon was, "How do you spell 'nepotism' in 2024? B-I-D-E-N"
