Leland Yee is one of the Senators gleefully passing (trying to pass) laws against gun owners. These are the kind of laws making it more difficult to obtain/use guns of any kind.  His political stance is anti-gun, his latest address: jail.

Last year his claim to fame was a law requiring all owners of long guns (rifles) of any kind to register them. Another Yee Bill, one that passed, is abolishing the use of magazines able to hold more than 10 rounds. And without getting into the whole pro-gun or anti-gun discussion, this sad story is about a guy standing up there saying “No You Can’t Have This” while having his palm greased (elections coming up) in the background by some very bad people he was helping to traffic firearms. Really? I hope they blow this guys career off the map!

Below is a copy of some of the text from the story going down since March 27, 2014. Yesterday.

SAN FRANCISCO/SACRAMENTO (Reuters) – A prominent California lawmaker was arrested on Wednesday in an FBI sweep that netted 26 people, a high-profile case that could affect statewide elections and brings to three the number of Democratic state senators who face criminal charges this year.
Senator Leland Yee, a former San Francisco supervisor and one-time mayoral candidate, was criminally charged in federal court in San Francisco with two felony counts of conspiring to import and traffic in firearms, and six corruption counts.

Yee was released on $500,000 bond and declined to comment on the case.

A criminal complaint posted online by the U.S. Attorney office for the Northern District of California alleges that Yee did favors for an undercover FBI agent in exchange for campaign contributions. The complaint alleges that Yee also offered to facilitate a meeting between the undercover agent and an arms dealer, and discussed the types of weapons that the undercover agent might need.

If one of our crime drama TV shows had a storyline like this, I don’t know if we would be glued to our seats or just shaking our head in disbelief.
