The indictment against the president's son comes after a plea agreement on tax and gun charges fell apart in July and amid a probe of his finances by House Republicans.
So Republicans are cool with Hunter’s indictment over his gun license application details? I guess that means they hate the Bidens even more than they love guns.
It’s quite interesting from a religious perspective. Most of these people pretend to be devout christians with christian principles, but they judge Joe Biden harshly for loving his son and for the fact he has forgiven him his many missteps.
If they were actually devout christians, they would realise the way Biden treats his son is quite reminiscent of the Parable of the Prodigal Son. It’s been a while, but the whole point of that parable, is that just like a father forgives his wayward son, God forgives his children for our many missteps and sins, and celebrates our return to the fold as the father celebrated the return of his prodigal son.
I honestly don’t know how you can hate Joe Biden for forgiving and loving his son, then expect God to forgive you for your sins.
Personally, I’m not religious. The interesting thing is that in practice, despite their loud prostestations and virtue signaling, the conservative right seem to be becoming increasingly secular too. I don’t think many of them actually believe. They certainly don’t seem to believe in Christian values or the bible anymore. They just hang on to the symbols of religion because it is politically expedient and allows them to differentiate their in-group, then often seem to do the exact opposite of what the bible tells them to do.
Religious people will twist the bible according to their requirements. Are we surprised here?
If they followed the bible, women wouldn’t be treated equally as men, which interestingly there are men that think like that, and even more interestingly there are women that allow it
You have a point but the Bible can be used to prove or disprove anything. Read Mark 4:12 in context. Jesus does not want people who don’t instantly accept him to ever be given a chance to repent. Going completely against what you just said.
If they knew their Bible they could use this argument. You are right however that they don’t.
its so much worse than that. not only do they believe, but they believe their version of christianity that allows for racism, hate and just about whatever the priest feeds them. for a non-trivial percent of the population, jesus isnt about loving your neighbor anymore.

Dunno about Republicans in general but a lot of Gun Owners are because they’ve wanted question 11e on the 4473 removed for a LONG time and Hunter’s situation was a way to force the Federal Goverment / ATF to address the issue.
To be clear Hunter shouldn’t be in trouble for this BUT neither should anyone else and it was always bullshit they’d dismiss his charge but toss other people in prison over it.
Patrick Daniels got four years and the 5th Circuit only over turned that conviction in August of 2023 which was after the details of Hunters deal were released.
How’d you like to be the guy sitting in prison watching CNN tell you about the President’s Son getting a pass on the same thing that put you inside?

“Bobby, if those Republicans could read they’d be very upset.”
If they actually had principles, they’d be really conflicted right now.
