Shall. Not. Be. Infringed!

That's what MAGA like to say, right? I'm sure they'll be out to support him.

How awesome would it be if Hunter ends up being cell-mates with Donald Trump‽

Finally, a reality show idea I can get behind

I wish I could watch the exploding heads at the NRA right now...

Ok good. Prosecute criminals. Conservatives think that liberals are also in a cult because it's the only way they can imagine being

The fact that a lot of the laws on the books are almost never enforced unless cops want to punish someone is a conversation we are not ready to have yet as a nation.

The law that snagged hunter biden was one of thousands that create a kind of web of infractions, to the point that almost everyone is violating at least one law every day.

I'm fine with locking up Hunter if he did something wrong, which is different than if he broke the law.

If he was any other US citizen you'd have every single republican screamer coming out to denounce his "politically motivated" and "unconstitutional" charges.

A person broke the law. Justice as expected then.

I don't see how this is a political news point though. Has this person been given government positions or control by their relationship to Biden? Is there corruption happening?

[-] kent_eh@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago

You don't see how the Republicans are using this as an attempt to disparage the president by proxy?

I don't know why people are acting like this is on Biden that his adult son broke a law or laws. Everyone's got people in their family who are assholes.

I'm going to be honest, when the craziest, most armed people in the craziest, most armed nation, want you dead, you should be able to have whatever weapons you want to protect yourself. 🤷

Cool, will republicans finally shut up now? That was like the only thing they had going for them for the last 4 years lol.

[-] doomer@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

America is a terrifyingly broken country.

It's like 'every day is backwards day' crossed with an infinitely-recursive manifold.

[-] Chocrates@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

It kinda seems like it is politically motivated in the other direction. They are taking this much more seriously and a wealthy white man usually would have to deal with.

I wish our system was unbiased and treated everyone equally
