Anti-Gun CA State Senator Yee Arrested

An anti-gun Senator charged with conspiring to illegally import firearms and sell without a license… But I thought he HATED firearms? His public record shows a long history of restricting 2nd Amendment rights of Californians.

California state Sen. Leland Yee was arrested on public corruption charges as part of several arrests made by the FBI Wednesday morning during a massive FBI sting.

U.S. Attorney Melinda Haag of the Northern District of California said that Yee and Raymond “Shrimp Boy” Chow, leader of the Chee Kung Tong Free Masons, were among 26 defendants charged in a federal criminal complaint.
