You forgot to add "again" to your sentence.
Boebert's hypocritical "family values" family is the least surprising thing in this article. I'm more surprised that Colorado has a town called Rifle.
I'm more surprised he wasn't shot while breaking into cars in a town called rifle. I'm sure she'd be totally fine with it if he was, right? Or is that only minorities that deserve death for theft?

There seem to be a lot of geographic locations named Rifle around there, but it looks like the name originated at Rifle Creek which got its name from someone finding a rifle along its banks in the 19th century. If Wikipedia can be believed, that is.

Hey guys, be fair. Maybe he was just stealing to support the baby he had with a child who was "over 14, so it wasn't statutory rape, we totally swear.'
I forgot he had a kid. If having a kid doesn't grow you up, nothing will.
I thought he was under 18 when that happened? — not defending him
He was 17. IIRC, it would've still been illegal for him to have sex with her if she was 14 or younger, so they were very careful to specify that she was "over 14."
Uh huh, sure she was.
Every time anyone shares information about someone they are dating they lead with unsolicited information of why the relationship is technically legal. It's how you know the love is pure. \s

Aren't felonies a requirement for running for office as a Republican now?
You can skip the felony requirement if you have enough sexual assault allegations. Or if you’re a “female,” you just need to have gotten pregnant before 18.
I'm sure he will have a bright future as a member of Yall'Qaeda

Boebert's family is like Sarah Palin's family if you sprinkled-in more meth and rape of minors.
That poor kid.
As much as my sympathy usually lies with the wronged party (those against whom he has committed crimes) it is impossible for me to believe that having those two as parents is immaterial to their son's criminal acting out now.
"An abnormal response to an abnormal situation is absolutely normal," as the saying goes, and I can't help but think that's at least part of what's happening here: that while Lauren and Jayson Boebert have spent their son's growing up years off chasing money and power and elected office and doing whatever else they do, that kid has been alternately bringing himself up or staring crazy in the face, depending on who was in the house at the time.
I feel bad for him, to be honest.
Not to excuse his criminal activity, but I don't think it's really a surprise he's not particularly... well-adjusted, given who his mother is. I frankly would have been more shocked if I was told he was a functional, well-adjusted, pleasant human being.
which kinda sucks, honestly. it's not like these kids seem to have really had a great chance before, then she runs for congress.

I really don't care what her shitty son does. She is much worse.
If this bitch wants to go after Joe Biden because of something Hunter Biden did/is accused of, then we damn well SHOULD care about what her son is doing. As they love to say, "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree."
If Republicans had no double standards, they'd have no standards at all.

Personally I had no idea she was married with children. Wasn't she just kicked out of a movie theater for being stoned and giving some staffer a hanny? Or is that some other republican trainwreck.
She's a 37 year old divorced grandmother.
You're essentially correct, there, but slightly off on a couple details. About a month before her divorce finalized, she was kicked out of a musical for vaping and being rowdy with her new boyfriend.
and being rowdy with her new boyfriend.
Is that what we're calling it these days?
She split with her husband, ie the guy who exposed himself to her in a bowling alley when she was a minor.
Also the guy she fucked around with is a registered Democrat who owns a bar that does drag shows.
I'm not making any of this up

She's actually a grandmother. I'm not joking.
Generation times can be very short when mental illness and/or heavy drug use are in play.
I had a cousin who was a grandfather at 32 and great grandfather at 46.

Oh, okay, we'll just look at your congressional record, public statements, and your own police records then
"Please look past my family's personal lives" she said during a press conference about Hunter Biden...
Look past her chaotic family life… and focus on her clown show in Congress?
Yes but no, her progenitor Sarah Palin set the stage for this bs. Family Values and abstinence only got Bristol knocked up at 17, unmarried of course.
Hold these shitbags accountable for all their actions.

Hear me out now.
Perhaps she should not be givin' handies in auditoriums, and maybe she should be focusing more on the problems of her son and cut out the malarkey.

Isn't he the one who also knocked up an under-aged girl?
Give him the Hunter Biden treatment.
No thank you. I don't want to see MTG holding up a picture of his dick.

Raising a bunch of shitbag people, who would’ve guessed!?!
Boebert is a terrible legislator, but her kids’ behavior and life choices have little to do with the record and views by which her fitness to represent should be judged.
There are so many good reasons not to vote for her. It validates Republican attacks on Hunter Biden as “how the game is played.”
The least we can do is be a bit more nuanced about how we joke about it.
I think the big difference is that this kid is barely 18, and probably still lives at home. That means it was all happening under her roof.
In comparison, Hunter has been an adult for decades.

Imagine that. ;)
Edit: The downvotes are probably from "white knights" who want to bang her.
"criminal possession of a financial device"
'Had to look up what is considered a financial device...
Under 18-5-702 CRS, it is a criminal offense in Colorado to use, possess, or manufacture a blank credit card. Unlawful use of a financial transaction device encompasses credit cards, debit cards, ATM cards, or other financial devices. This crime can be a petty offense, misdemeanor, or a felony.''
