Biden preaches about gun safety but doesn't mention Hunter's firearm conviction in speech to 'Gun Sense University'... hours after verdict

President Joe Biden preached about his record on gun safety but failed to mention son Hunter's firearm conviction in a speech just hours after he was found guilty.  

During his remarks, Biden repeatedly touted his record on implementing more strict gun control laws.

But he failed to bring up his son Hunter, 54, or the irony of the event taking place the same day as a jury found him guilty of lying about his crack cocaine addiction to buy a revolver in 2018.

Now he is facing a maximum of up to 25 years in prison when he is sentenced, in a date with a judge likely to be in October. 

President Joe Biden mentioned receiving the call his son Beau Biden died during remarks about addressing gun violence on Tuesday – but did not bring up his son Hunter Biden, who was just convicted  hours earlier of three firearms-related felonies

President Biden however, reference his late son Beau Biden and how he could relate to families of victims of gun violence because of the call he received informing him of his son's death.

'I know it's hard because I've gotten those phone calls too saying I've lost a son, a daughter, a wife – I know what it's like,' the president said at the Washington Hilton during remarks on his gun restriction policies at the Everytown's Gun Sense University summit.

'But guess what? Never give up on hope, hope, hope, hope,' he added.

Hours earlier, the 12-member jury in Hunter Biden's gun case came back with a verdict deeming him guilty on all three felony counts for lying on a form about his addiction in order to purchase a firearm in 2018 and owning and operating a firearm while being a user of illicit substances.

After the ruling, Biden decided to change his schedule to Wilmington Tuesday afternoon to be with his family.

While the president was not present at the weeklong trial, other family members, including First Lady Jill Biden, were in the courtroom supporting Hunter.

'As I said last week, I am the President, but I am also a Dad,' the president wrote in a statement following the ruling and before his remarks. 'Jill and I love our son, and we are so proud of the man he is today.'

'So many families who have had loved ones battle addiction understand the feeling of pride seeing someone you love come out the other side and be so strong and resilient in recovery,' Biden continued.

A 12-member jury in Delaware found Hunter Biden guilty of three felony charges related to a 2018 gun purchase where he lied about his use and addiction to illicit drugs

Hunter was found guilty of three federal firearms charges for lying about being addicted to crack cocaine when he bought this revolver 

The court was shown damning evidence on Hunter, including images from his infamous laptop that was initially rejected as Russian disinformation

Hunter's stripper ex-girlfriend Zoe Kestan told the court he smoked crack 'every 20 minutes' when they were together 

At the event, Biden also made his most recent verbal gaffe by claiming he's been to several 'mass shootings.'

'I've been to too many – I've literally spoken with well over a thousand families at these events I've attended – mass shootings,' Biden said to the anti-gun audience.

'Look in their eyes, you can almost feel that black hole they feel in the center of their chest, like they're being sucked in, there's no way out,' he continued, ignoring the flub.
