Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, will plead guilty to three federal charges, the Justice Department said Tuesday in a court filing.
Poster Comment: If the man committed a crime, then he needs to do the time.
What questions about drug use are on the paperwork? Lawyer pretty told me to ALWAYS lie about previous drug use unless it’s gov paperwork or courts.
When getting a handgun license or registering a firearm in some states there can be questions like “are you a habitual drunkard” and “Are you an addict or habitual user of a controlled dangerous substance?” Lying about this can end up being a felony, at least in Maryland where I pulled the above two questions from.
Do they really word it that way? That’s stupid broad. Applied for a IT Position for a local PD decades ago, the wording was very clearly “Have you ever done any illegal drugs; List every instance and explain”.
I did not end up applying.
Would actually be hilarious if you’re clean.
“Have I ever smoked marijuana? Well, no, I haven’t. So I better lie about this and check ‘yes’ just like my lawyer advices.”
The form is ATF4473, it is a government form, and lying on it is a felony.
“Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance? Warning: The use or possession of marijuana remains unlawful under Federal law regardless of whether it has been legalized or decriminalized for medicinal or recreational purposes in the state where you reside.”
Not entirely relevant here but I’ll say it anyway.
I fully support people not getting in trouble over lying on this question due to the marijuana inclusion.
