California Politicians at their best

At the risk of getting booted for a political thread, though I know we have a good sized gun community here:

Anyone familiar with California politics knows Yee for being a crazy drooling gun control crusader. Well it turns out he just tried to sell automatic weapons and explosives to an undercover FBI agent. Oops.

Don't worry the DOJ will keep good track of your serial numbers for you though.

I wish my job let me live somewhere else.

I will leave my feelings on guncontrol out of this... but that is comedy gold

Hah, I love it when hypocrites get their dicks kicked in the dirt.

He's NOT a hypocrite, he's a criminal scumbag. He wants diarmed victims for his homeboys. Patently obvious.

I predict a really good episode of The Daily Show.

I hope Bubba sees the irony of this when he bends Lee over his bunk

1 in jail (well, out on bail), 119 to go.

Hey, he's a "Representative". He is "representing" his district. Guns bad.

He personally likes money, does not care about distributing guns to make it.

I believe his action are entirely reasonable and consistent.

What a dick

In other news, a local California crime family also makes the news:

Ron Calderon takes leave of absence from California Senate

Oh, I am sorry, not "crime family", it's "political family"

California certainly is not alone in this.... same story... different state...

Makes sense to me. If he makes the guns harder to obtain legally he can charge more for his "services" on the side.

I can't decide if sexual innuendo has ruined or rescued the thread.

Either way, get a room!
