The arrest of a man on drug and gun-related charges whose prison sentence was commuted by former President Joe Biden days before he left office underscores the massive failure of the Democrats’ soft-on-crime strategy, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms declared.
Fox News is reporting the arrest of Willie Frank Peterson, 52, is back behind bars two months after Biden commuted his prison sentence on Jan. 17. Peterson was doing time for conspiracy to distribute cocaine, having been imprisoned in September 2023. However, he was arrested earlier this week in Alabama, charged with two counts of unlawful possession of a controlled substance, one count of marijuana possession, possession of “drug paraphernalia” and “three firearms-related offenses, the report said.
“Joe Biden had no problem weaponizing government agencies against law-abiding gun owners and small retailers, or pushing for gun bans and other restrictions,” CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb recalled. “Peterson’s arrest simply amplifies the implosion of such a policy, which treats convicted criminals better than honest citizens whose only ‘crime’ is their exercise of Second Amendment rights.
“High-ranking Democrats seem to make a habit of it,” he continued, “as illustrated in Washington state by the recent arrest of Percy Levy, a convicted felon who was granted clemency in 2019 by former Governor Jay Inslee, also on drug and weapons charges. Inslee, like Biden, never met a gun control law he didn’t embrace, and both men treated law-abiding gun owners like the enemy, while showing misplaced sympathy for people who flagrantly ignored the law, and quickly went right back to the wrong side.
“Biden’s pardon of his own son on a federal gun law conviction was the ex-president’s greatest insult to the tens of millions of American citizens who obey the law,” Gottlieb observed. “These high-profile arrests are putting the bankruptcy of Democrat policies on full display. They treat good people like criminals, while treating bad people like model citizens. Their moral compass is broken, and unfortunately Democrats do not appear interested in helping get the country back on course.”
How many 1/6 felons pardoned by trump have been rearrested or shot dead by the police?
A few but not at any higher rate than the general public.
“rearrested or shot dead by the police”
That’s pretty specific, but its a lot less than than Biden auto-pen pardoned.
@Missy12
I got curious about how specific your statement was with “been rearrested or shot dead by the police” – why, its almost like you geared that for a ‘gotcha’ thing troll like you do under your other names AKA Miner49er and AKA the various other names you use. But anyway, it took me a bit but I did the research and…
President Autopen, for commutation and pardon collectively, issued more than 8,000 during its presidency Jan 20 2021- Jan 20 2025. Heck, in one single day, President Autopen issued pardon for 39, and sentence commutation for 1,500. President Autopen also pardoned Hunter Biden for a for a ten-year period of crime. Joe Biden denied having any knowledge of what President Autopen was doing for pardons or commutation, even the one for Hunter Biden.
Of the ones for which President Autopen issued commutation or pardon, out of the over 8,000: 372 have been arrested for some offense, usually drug related but some have gone on to commit other violent acts, and another 237 are suspects in further crimes, after President Autopen commutation or pardon.
