The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"it is clear that you are saying that the DOJ doesn't know the law of the land are acting out of ignorance.

Nope. I'm saying attorneys feel the SCOTUS has stepped on its extremist dick and that act will be exploited to Hunter's benefit.

do you think a law that bars narcotic addicts from owning firearms is a wise thing or not?

Once an addict, always an addict. Limbaugh the addict got his 2A rights restored

Rush Limbaugh's attorney said "Rush Limbaugh was singled out for prosecution because of who he is. We believe the state attorney's office is applying a double standard.

"he filed a "not guilty" plea to the charge. Prosecutors explained that the charges were brought after they discovered he received about 2,000 painkillers, prescribed by four doctors in six months, at a pharmacy near his Palm Beach mansion. In 2009, after three years of prolonged discussion regarding a settlement, prosecutors agreed to drop the charge if Limbaugh paid $30,000 to defray the cost of the investigation, completed an 18-month therapy regimen with his physician, submitted to random drug testing, and gave up his right to own a firearm for eighteen months."


After that his record was expunged and got to buy guns.

Why should Hunter be punished any more than Limbaugh?
