Hide your Filipino terrorist organizations.
Arms trafficker and disgraced ex-senator Leland Yee should be officially walking the streets as of today, June 26, 2020, the year of Arnold. Gamers may remember Leland Yee as a staunch gun control advocate and sponsor of a bill attempting to criminalize the sale of mature rated games to minors within the state of California. The bill failed spectacularly not only in its implementation but in the fight to secure the law leading to a Supreme Court ruling in favor of video game violence being a protected form of free speech.
As prominent of a gun control activist as he was, Leland Yee was arrested in 2014 and charged with wire fraud and conspiracy to deal firearms. Yes the man who wanted to ban the sale of Grand Theft Auto to minors for their own safety was charged with taking bribes from Ghee Kung Tong, a Chinese organization known for murder-for-hire contracts, drug sales, and arms trafficking. Leland Yee was also charged with conspiring to smuggle illegal firearms into the United States from a terrorist group in the Philippines. And he would have gotten away with it too, were he not actually speaking to undercover FBI agents.
So for those keeping score; selling Manhunt 2 to minors? Criminally bad. Taking bribes from actual killers and smuggling guns to sell to gangs so they can kill people? Perfectly acceptable. Maybe Leland Yee was right about the danger of guns. After all the man looked into the face of a dangerous criminal when he gazed into the mirror every morning.
Leland Yee is 71 years old and with his newly established reputation will presumably become a leading candidate in the 2024 presidential campaign.
But what do I know.
