An American politician has been arrested in Hong Kong for carrying a gun into the city, according to a charge sheet seen by CNN, in what he has called an “honest mistake.”
“Washington state senator Jeff Wilson was arrested on Saturday at Hong Kong International Airport and charged with possession of a firearm without a license, the charge sheet states, an offense punishable by up to 14 years in prison and a fine of more than $12,000.”
But that was the point they were making. Usually if you hear something this outright idiotic you would probably be correct in saying there will be an R by their name. This is coming from someone who leans left and owns guns and grew up around them and learned to respect them. They are a tool.
As others have pointed out, it’s not the gun ownership. It’s the stupid, entitled, law-breaking gun ownership. As you’re a gun-toting Democrat, I fully expect you to be smart enough not to be packing heat on an international flight.
I wouldn’t necessarily make that assumption, I’m a gun toting Democrat myself
Yes, but are you dumb enough to take your gun with you when traveling internationally?
They probably just know there are consequences for their actions. Unlike the politician.
Did anyone actually read the article?
Did you?
Whoopsies!
The bit where he says he is the one that brought it to the attention of customs.
That doesn’t make him any less stupid given that he flew to China with an illegal gun in the first place.

no but that’s not really the point I was making
Sure, but it is the point the person you were replying to was making.

The stupidity was the giveaway, not the gun.

Do you know many gun toting democrats that are bad gun owners?
Yeah, but you probably aren’t going to try to bring a gun to China.
As am I. Been a gun toting democrat since I shipped off to Iraq to look for yellowcake.
Good thing you guys never found any. With that name the Marines would definitely try to eat it.
