Gun control advocate (Joseph John Deaser IV) sold illegal guns, goes to jail

[sfvshooter]

Sort of like jesus freaks who have extramarital affairs, homosexual encounters, etc. Hypocrites come in all shapes and sizes.

4 years, out in 16 months and can get a job with Bloomberg .

Or Biden nominates him to be next ATF director after Chipman fails....

[Patrick Aherne]

He also did ID theft of the officers' personal identifying information. I'd file on him in state court for ID theft and sue him civilly, too.

Federal conviction, no parole. Four years means a minimum of 85% of the sentence (40.8 months). Still, snetence too short, IMO. Should be 20 uyears minimum, given the identity theft, etc. in addition to illegally selling many firearms.

People of faith are human beings and can falter and stumble, that does not make them a hypocrite. It makes them imperfect. If they continue to engage in such behavior they are not really people of faith. To equate someone falling short of Jesus' teachings as a hypocrite is overly simplistic.

You're a hypocrite if you condemn homosexuality or adultery, but engage in those activities.

I believe that's the textbook definition of a hypocrite.

[Garand Hunter]

When discussing hypocrites on a gun forum there IS NO textbook definition of " hypocrite " sfv, only attitudes and opinions, which as we know are like arseholes, everybody has one. Good response 9mmlaw.

Reminds me of the new Biden pick for ATF chief. The kind of man who if in charge of auto accident preventions. Recommends banning automobiles as the cure...

[johncage]

he knew gun control would increase his black market profit, his support of gun control is probably motivated by short sighted greed. most criminals don't think like normal people. they don't think, oh if i say one thing but do something else i'm a hypocrite. instead they think, what actions can i take that will benefit me the most, especially at the expense of everyone else.

If you preach to not do X, and then do X, then you are a hypocrite. That's what he is saying, and he is correct.

Exactly this. Hypocrisy is rampant no matter what. Jesus condemned the Jewish leaders of his day for that.

A person who sins can also be considered a hypocrite. However, being repentant is an action that comes after the fact. We all sin, but I would not categorize all sin as hypocrisy or visa versa.

This gun dealer is greedy. He is a hypocrite since he 'preached' for strict gun laws and yet did not abide by them.

As an aside, just from the short but odd clip above, I wouldn't trust that guy with a bag of chips.

Leland Yee comes to mind. Again

So he was really giving the finger to the law! The ultimate in hypocrisy
