Biden’s Achilles heel in calling for new gun laws

Republicans and other civil rights Second Amendment activists have a trump card (please pardon the expression) to play against President Biden’s attempts to expand gun laws that penalize law-abiding citizens and in effect exempt criminals.

Simply demand that Biden’s bureaucrats enforce existing gun laws before passing new ones.  Specifically, enforce the law against his son, Hunter.

If you are unfamiliar with Hunter’s apparent felony violation of gun control laws, Deanna Fisher of Victory Girls has a good essay on this and related issues (hat tip: Darah Hoyt, Instapundit).

Does anyone remember this barely-touched story, where Hunter Biden lied in order to buy a gun? Not only that, but his sister-in-law/ex-girlfriend Hallie Biden, is an absolutely dangerous fool. You see, Hunter Biden bought a gun in 2018 — but he had to lie on his 4473 form in order to buy it. One would think that Hunter Biden, having a few brushes with the law and being the former vice-president’s son at the time, would have known that lying on that form is a felony. Again, what are rules to Hunter Biden?

POLITICO obtained copies of the Firearms Transaction Record and a receipt for the gun dated Oct. 12, 2018.”

Hunter responded “no” to a question on the transaction record that asks, “Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?” Five years earlier, he had been discharged from the Navy Reserve after testing positive for cocaine, and he and family members have spoken about his history of drug use.”

Lying on the form is a felony, though prosecutions for it are exceedingly rare.”

Maybe if prosecutions weren’t “rare,” then people would take the 4473 form seriously and, oh, NOT LIE WHILE FILLING IT OUT. It’s a thought.
