    This. Here’s what gun rights groups have said about Hunter Bidens conviction:

    “Gun Owners of America believes the underlying law is unconstitutionally broad, but so long as it remains on the books, Hunter deserved no special treatment or mercy,” Pratt told Fox News Digital.

    “While some might question the validity of the gun law used to prosecute Biden, given the current administration’s disdain for the Second Amendment and their efforts to take guns out of the hands of law-abiding citizens, I suspect most gun owners won’t lose any sleep over this particular conviction.” [Mike McCoy, a Second Amendment attorney for the Mountain States Legal Foundation]

    Only one gun rights group has actually said they don’t care who anti-gun laws are used against, they don’t support those laws.

    “Countless lives are destroyed every year under the federal government’s unconstitutional and immoral regulations. We proudly work to eliminate these laws and create a free world. Just as we have in many other cases, we stand ready to assist Mr. Biden in his challenge of federal gun laws,” said FPC [Firearms Policy Coalition] President Brandon Combs.
