18 U.S.C. § 922(d)(1) makes it a federal crime to sell a firearm to a person who is under felony indictment.
And 18 U.S.C. § 922(n) makes it a federal crime for a person under indictment to ship or transport a firearm.
Oh the irony if Trump and Hunter Biden both caught gun charges
But cool part would be if Hunters charge was deemed unconstitutional but Trump’s was upheld.
If Hunter is charged, then Trump should be as well. If Hunter is dropped, then Trump's should be as well.
I thought there was supposed to be a Statute of Limitations issue on the Hunter case, but still....fairs fair.
As I understand it, Hunter didn't answer the question correctly on his gun purchase. Not checking the box on drug use. Though this is against the law, a district court's already deemed it unconstitutional.
Trumps is a straight federal code violation.
Good point. Thanks for the correction.
Different situations completely. Hunter did not accurately fill out a form. Trump is under federal indictment.
If Hunter is charged, then Trump should be as well. If Hunter is dropped, then Trump's should be as well.
Thank Christ this isn't how our legal system works. These are two different cases, and they're not linked in any way.
No that's not how it works. You see, the milquetoast AG Garland has to look non-political by actually being political and not charging Trump, but only charging Hunter Biden.
What chance is that he did it on purpose?
To upset democrats (because the case against Hunter), but also to rile up Republicans that "democrats are taking our guns away".
We never heard about him buying gun, when he could do so legally. He also doesn't give impression like he cares about guns at all.
Zero. He's not that calculating. He's a moron that instinctually manipulates and cons people through his incessant narcissism only in the present.
Calling him moron is what helped him multiple times get out of responsibility ("he didn't know", "that's how he is", "he shouldn't testify, because he could incriminate himself", like what?).
Even now with the indictments including 91 felonies he is treated so much better than somebody caught with a small bag of weed.
Don't contribute to this.
Being a moron isn't an excuse for crimes, nor is it the reason for a cop-out for the kid gloves he's being handled with. You're flagrantly misattributing his being a moron and the entirety of us calling him such as a reason he's being patted on the head like a child.
He's being coddled in a (misguided, imo) manner to give him absolutely ZERO grounds for a successful appeal in any of his cases. He's being given ALL the legal rope to hang himself with.
He's already openly admitted to Mar-a-Lago crimes from TrophShendral posts and interviews that wouldn't have existed had he already rightfully been behind bars awaiting trial.
I hope you are right. I do want to see him behind bars.
Doesn't matter if it's on purpose. Its the law.
"IT'S THE LAW." says Judge Dredd, as he instantly convicts and sentences the gelatinous orange blob to be executed on the spot. A napalm round should do the trick. There is no reason to drag this out, after all the former reality TV personality was probably the most obvious, unrepentant and insufferable criminals he'd ever had the pleasure of eliminating.
The law only matters if it is enforced, and there are strong pressures to not enforce it, and because large number of people call him moron, this is being used by his people to get him off the hook ("he didn't know" even though that was never a valid excuse, on top of that he can afford lawyers that charge more for the case that we make in our lifetime)
So I guess you wouldn't charge a crime based on what people are saying and their ability to have lawyers? Ever meet a US District Attorney? Because I assure you, they could care less.
You misunderstand me. This is not what I want, but what often happens. This is why selecting AG and DA are important. Trump didn't for charged during presidency, because his people didn't allow it. Even now he is treated with kids glowes.
I'm confused. Did he do either of these?
His campaign said he bought a Glock handgun while in South Carolina, but when it was pointed out that it would be illegal for him to have bought a gun while under federal charges, and to take the gun out of SC, his staff walked back the claim.
How would I know if someone is under felony indictment?
If I sell my gun to my neighbour who is under felony indictment without my knowledge can I be sued?
Under those laws it doesn't matter. The dealer has to ask the question. If the answer is yes, he can't sell.
Ever hear the phrase 'Background Check' ?
Stores have to do that. Private sales are a shit show.
