Just heard it on Fox

Wow

what a POS. Yet somehow he will get off with out jail time. Yet a guy with a bullet, a peice of lead alloy, got fines.

Some people need to be put in a cage, on display, and shit/pissed on for a length of time.

And I did see that there was no mention of this on CNN. WOW

Just called the Tips Ideas hotline and told them about the story and asked why it wasn't on their web site front page.
Response was no idea why. I then asked if anyone there had a degree in Journalism. She said I don't see how that is relevant and hung up.

Nothing on foxnews.com home page, but this comes up as the first article on a search

I haven't signed on to my facebook account for at least 6 months........ maybe today would be a good day to go on and do some posting. If the "news" will not inform people of this maybe we should start hitting the main stream social media.

I will be posting it up on my account later today on face book. I will probably also find a link or to referencing Harry Reid's arrest last week that never seemed to make the news.

Is any one else in?

This story is so off-the-wall that I've gotta think there's something inherently wrong with it. While I'd love to see Yee, one of the biggest anti-gun, moron imbeciles on the planet, get his comeuppance, I'm incredulous that he'd [knowingly] be involved in anything like this. Before corks start popping, I think we need to let this play out for a bit to see where it goes.

Agreed. It could fizzle out like the Bob Menendez prostitution scandal.

You know in a sick way this all makes sense. Ban certain classes of weapons and you won't really kill the demand...but you did just severely limit the supply. What happens when demand stays the same but supply drops? Prices rise!

If you happen to be a supplier - or broker deals for one - you can stand to make enough money to make Scrooge McDuck look middle-class.

This guy has all sorts of people upset. The video gaming industry is probably loving this as much as the rest of us.

Almost as if Henry Bowman had planned it out!

It's just missing the kiddie porn and sex toys... and the fact he is still among us.

 

[Mooseman]

Rush Limbaugh is getting some enjoyment out of his arrest.

As a huge fan of both guns and games, I'm just about orgasmic!

Give it time. I'm sure they haven't finished going through his hard drive or closets yet....

Oh the irony... the guy that's in the center of the investigation is (was, according to him) one of the Chinese Triads from back in the 70s/80s in San Fran.

 

[ryan_j]

I would like to know - if the deal was to smuggle the arms through Newark, NJ, wouldn't somebody in NJ be involved? Let's see... prominent Democrats in Newark, NJ.*cough*Cory Booker*cough*

 

[Vile Shadow]

So he's not only a gun grabber, but also a gun runner?

Gee, I wonder what his Federal counterpart Sen. Dianne Frankenfeinstein has to say about this.

Oh that's right. He was dealing in FULL autos. The wicked witch of the west coast only cares about those dangerous SEMI-autos.

Have you read the affidavit for the arrest ?

Yee is only a minor cog in that case, this was mainly directed at the Triad gangsters that control Chinatown under the guise of running community charities or legit businesses. The affidavit mentions wiretaps along the way, so I assume they do have the goods on most of the actors involved.
