The National Association for Gun Rights statement on Hunter Biden Gun Conviction
June 11, 2024
Washington, D.C.- For decades, the Gun Control Act (GCA) and the National Instant Criminal Background Check (NICS) System have functioned to strip gun rights from millions of Americans without due process.
These same gun control laws, which Hunter Biden is guilty of violating, are the same laws now being abused to federally-bar Donald Trump from possessing a firearm for the rest of his life.
These are also the same failed laws that stripped Second Amendment rights from 264,000 veterans without due process. In total, over 16 million Americans are on the FBI’s failed “no-guns” NICS list.
Right now, the Biden family is getting a taste of their own anti-gun medicine.
But so is Donald Trump who’s “take the guns first” comments during a 2019 push to expand these federal gun control laws resulted in Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) putting the bill on President Biden’s desk for signature in 2022.
Make no mistake, John Cornyn’s rush to add more names to the “no-guns” NICS list is the reason Donald Trump’s gun rights are in jeopardy today.
Meanwhile, these anti-gun laws only ensure drug lords like Hunter Biden — who do not care about what the law says either way – will continue to be armed and dangerous while ordinary law-abiding gun owners continue to lose their gun rights every day at the hands of corrupt bureaucrats like Alvin Bragg.
These gun control laws should not exist. This should be a wakeup call for the entire Republican Party and GOP lawmaker to stop abandoning the Second Amendment.
The National Association for Gun Rights is calling on Donald Trump, Speaker Johnson, and Senators McConnell and Cornyn to publicly embrace a repeal of the GCA and NICS failed federal gun control laws once and for all.
The National Association for Gun Rights is the nation’s largest “no compromise” pro-gun organization, with 4.5 million members nationwide.
