Rep. Lauren Boebert’s 18-year-old son, Tyler Boebert, was arrested on Tuesday afternoon and is facing 22 charges, including several felony charges relating to a string of crimes in her Colorado district.
According to a Facebook post by the Rifle Police Department, the 18-year-old Boebert was arrested after a “recent string of vehicle trespass and property thefts” in Rifle, a town in Colorado’s 3rd congressional district.
According to Garfield County Jail’s records, the younger Boebert is facing four counts of criminal possession of a financial device, four counts of criminal possession of ID documents, and a count of conspiracy to commit a felony.
He’s also charged with four misdemeanor counts of ID theft, three misdemeanor counts of first-degree criminal trespass, and three misdemeanor counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
In addition, he’s also charged with three counts of the petty offense of theft of less than $300.
$20 says this piece of shit starts bitching about “respecting her privacy”, while telling others how they should live.
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?
It won’t be long before whites are a minority in this country. So I guess then he would deserve death for even the smallest of infractions.
Did I really need to add /s?
Did I really need to add /s
Yes. Right wingers say that kind of thing earnestly all the time. Don’t expect people to give you the benefit of the doubt when you start in with ‘white replacement’ rhetoric.
I get where you are coming from. I was speaking of demographic shifts that have been projected for years.
Oh and just like reddit, anyone who wants to use a little brain power could take 2 seconds and peruse my comment history. Nothing I’ve ever said would have me confused with a maggat.
Ah yes. Downvote legit conversation. This is how lemmy ends up looking like reddit or twitter. Lots of people will just stop contributing to the convo if this community as a whole isn’t capable of adult discourse.
Oh and unlike reddit, we can see who downvotes what on lemmy. Maybe I’ll start calling out the assholes as a way to kill time when I am bored.
No one is taking the time to peruse your comment history lol… Just add the /s if you want to make a sarcastic joke 🙄
Oh my God this nonce again.
They have such a victim complex.
You aren’t contributing to the conversation my dude. You are making the conversation about you.Are you done?
You seem like an alright person. Just a recommendation, now is a pretty good time for self reflection. Your comment didn’t sound at all sarcastic and there’s no reason for anyone to check your history. Just mark it with /s next time so we know.

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.
I trust Wikipedia more than the news now.
Like Pueblo, which is basically just a town called Town.

Less to do with the mid west, and more to do with the Wild West. It’s an old ranching town.
I think people often misunderstand “family values” from redneck trash families. They’re not hypocrites, generally, in this. Teenagers being trashy happens regardless of parents political leanings, the real hypocrisy would be if they went to the abortion clinic. They usually don’t. It’d be a lot smarter, but then they’d have to change their views when confronted with the consequences, and that’s horribly hypocritical. Person should maybe really think things through before it’s convenenient.
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 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
RIP news reporters. RIP anybody wanting to pay for news.
Aren’t felonies a requirement for running for office as a Republican now?
I’m sure he will have a bright future as a member of Yall’Qaeda
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.
Kyle Rittenhouse/Tyler Boebart 2032
Please don’t give them ideas.
How many minors did he rape? You gotta have some of those to make it in the Republicans.
Just the one that we know of.
Gotta secure the black vote somehow, and they seem to think this is the way for some idiotic reason?
Yea, if you expect black people to like you.
(Dont @ me, Trump said it)
Young Tyler’s going to have to up his game if he ever wants to be a republican presidential candidate. 22 is fuckin rookie numbers boii.
Boebert’s family is like Sarah Palin’s family if you sprinkled-in more meth and rape of minors.
Don’t forget public indecency. #Never4GetBettlejuice
I thought you were talking about Lauren’s ex-husband for a second.
and serving the public unrefrigerated pork sliders

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.
Nah, this “stoop to their level” stuff doesn’t help at all, it’s stupid and just gives them more ammo to drag attention away from actual policy issues.
Which would just give them the go ahead to continue doing shit like that. You also have to think about who you are trying to sway with that shit. Her supporters do not care and will make every excuse that they can for it. People who do not like her do not like her because she herself is a piece of shit.
They are giving themselves the go ahead to continue shit like that and nothing that you or I or anyone says will stop that.
Calling out hypocrisy isn’t hypocrisy.
There are bad eggs that pop out of perfectly fine people, but this really feels like someone who is acting out the life they were taught to lead. I.E. Son grew up just like the parents wanted.
Care because she’s a “family values” Republican and it shows exactly how bad they are at raising their kids. It’s worth pointing out every single time because that’s how they think everyone else should be forced to raise their kids.
Family values Republicans voted for Trump. It’s clear that they do not actually give two shits about family values when it comes to the steaming pile of shits they support.
That doesn’t mean you don’t point out their hypocrisy when they try to legislate based on something they’re hypocritical about.
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 frankly would have been more shocked if I was told he was a functional, well-adjusted, pleasant human being.
It is possible for someone to rebel against their parents shittiness by being the most upstanding citizen possible.
Or by becoming an activist for causes that oppose their shitty parent (see Nate Phelps, for example)
Unfortunately, those are rare examples, but they are possible.
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.
“Yes but no” what?
I’m just pointing out that her tenure in Congress is also a total mess, so I don’t know what shifting the focus away from her family even does for her
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.
Rowdy is generous. She had her tits out around a bunch of minors.
She was kicked out due to complaints about her vaping and being loud.
Everything else came out afterwards when they double checked the tapes.
Ngl I’d like to see that. Hoping she does onlyfans when her political career finally goes up in smoke
Username checks out
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 panicked and broke up with him and claimed she didn’t know. What a coward.
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.
Absolutely, you’re right. I work in child protection and it’s honestly pretty common to see grandparents in their thirties. I’m yet to see one younger than exactly 30 though, but I’m sure they’re out there. There’s always a heavy mix of domestic violence, substance abuse, sexual abuse, and sometimes mental health issues at play as well.
I met one who was just barely 30 once when I was over in England and it was not a fun story.
She had her daughter at 16 after being high on heroine. She had no idea who the father was. Her daughter had a baby girl after being raped by a cousin at 11.
She was a grandmother at 27.
Ah look to be fair, that short generation Al thing has only become unusual in broader western society in the last hundred years or even less.
Yeah, you got it, that was her
And these people think that they are morally superior. Amazing.

Ah, yes. I remember when I was a wee little evangelical. “We are on the righteous path! We are soldiers for the king of kings. Everyone who doesn’t conform is demon possessed. Ladies wearing blue jeans? They’re going to hell. People watching’ picher shows? They’re going to hell. Listening to their devil music? Hay-uhl! There’s godly people, and there’s everyone else. Who do you want to be brother angryseal? Oh shondra mah hyba, maw heep ah buh macoyata da bah sheenda! You say to the demon! Get behind me Say tuuuhn!”
Good lord. I need to go a good old country Pentecostal church on acid. What a show.
Still wrong. They just feel morally superior. Fuck knows why though. Plenty of delusion I guess.
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.
I don’t care if she’s fucking the whole town behind closed doors or in places that such behavior is welcome. But she needs to parent better, and if that takes time away from her sex life then so be it.
But also he’s 18 and has two parents. I’m not going to say it’s all her neglect. He’s an adult. And I wouldn’t be surprised if her parenting more would make it worse. She’s got shit morals
“It’s shit all the way down, Randy.”
I seen the shit bird talking at a shit podium to all the other shit birds, Sconie. As far as the eye could see, shit birds. All cooing and cawing peeping and whistling shit songs, Sconie. It was a sight to see. I got shit in my eyes, bud.
Also, the shit apple never falls far from the shit tree.
This brings a good point. When my wife and I were dating, we would go to the back of the theater and she would give me a nice BJ there. She (my wife) and I are by no means evil. I think it’s just a thing you do when you don’t have a house with a private bedroom. But there are adult book stores where that is common place and completely out in the open for people to join in if they want. It’s just the sort of thing that you don’t share at work and don’t do when you are trying to impress others… outside of the adult book stores… I think BJ’s should stay legal to give and receive.
Being a bad parent on the other hand is completely different. It shows how much you care for the people you love the most and are responsible for. So how can we expect her to do better for people she doesn’t even know?
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…
Give him the Hunter Biden treatment.
No thank you. I don’t want to see MTG holding up a picture of his dick.
I’m sure he has an onlyfans
I have successfully avoided seeing Hunter’s (apparently impressive) penis.
Plus, there’s precedent consider Lauren’s ex-husband exposed himself to teenage girls (including Lauren) in a bowling alley.
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 19. There’s a good chance that this behavior started while he was still under her roof. There’s even the possibility that he’s still living with her, which means she turned a blind eye to it all.
In comparison, Hunter has been an adult for decades. He already has a long career as a lawyer. His actions are his own.
Yes but we can see what sort of people she and her family are by how they behave. These children almost certainly had no good role models, no mentors, and no real future to speak of. They were ejected from her body and left to fend for themselves.
Remember, the GOP wants EVERYONE to live like her and her family. So, yes, we can look at what she does at home and make some judgements on that.
