    Just curious how this is related to politics, when Hunter Biden is a private citizen and not an elected official.

      I agree with you. Hunter is a private citizen. He doesn’t hold office and no one voted for him. Joe didn’t even make Hunter a part of his administration like Trump did with his family. BUT the Republicans dream that Hunter’s drug addiction and wrong doings will run off on Joe Biden. They want it to happen so bad.

      But yea, Hunter is not in office.

      It’s related to politics because the GOP needs something else to talk about beside their failure to govern.

    European here: first i hear of owning a gun being illegal for illegal drug users (strangly specific brady act) But now i am curious…

    What if you already own a gun but then start doing drugs? From what point does one start or stop becoming a drug user? Can you giveaway your gun then smoke weed. Vow to stop smoking weed and be gifted your gun back?

    I’ll applaud any ruling that keeps guns away from those not in a mature state of mind to handle the responsibility but its so specific, not even including recovering alcohol addicts it smells like more racist war on drugs rather then social safety.
