Hunter Biden's Gun Charges and the Conservative Push for the 2nd Amendment

The criminal indictment against Hunter Biden for illegal gun possession could potentially be challenged and dismissed on constitutional grounds due to the new and broader interpretation of the 2nd Amendment that has gained traction in conservative courts. Recent court rulings have expanded the scope of the 2nd Amendment, arguing that gun restrictions should only be upheld if they are consistent with early American history. Lawyers for the Biden administration are urging the Supreme Court to uphold laws that restrict gun rights for individuals who are not considered law-abiding and responsible citizens. However, legal experts suggest that Hunter Biden's indictment could be challenged based on the argument that gun possession laws should not apply to individuals with past nonviolent conduct.
