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 the charges here are based on the fact that he lied on a gun purchase application where he claimed he was not an active drug user at the time. You’d think all those 2A folks would be concerned about this considering the number of them who must also have lied based on the quantity of narcotics sales and meth busts in red states.
A lot of gun rights groups have been champing at the bit for a good chance to challenge that section of Form 4473 for a while now. A common point of contention is that e.g., holding a medical marijuana card would be a disqualifier if truthfully filling out a 4473. It’s so rarely actually prosecuted that finding a test case isn’t particularly easy, though.
It will be interesting – and telling – to see how they react to this case.
