Here’s some 2012 footage of Leland Yee, D, the California state Senator arrested and accused yesterday of trying to help smuggle rocket launchers and automatic weapons:
While discussing plans to smuggle arms from the Philippines, Yee allegedly said to the undercover FBI agent: "People want to get whatever they want to get. Do I care? No, I don’t care. People need certain things.”

Nah, he just left out the part of just so long as he gets his payoff.
First, this is not an excerpt. There is no addtional text at the link (that I can find.)
Second the video is a readily available YouTube link -

Third there is an annoying pop-up that blocks the initial view of the site.
There’s actually a lot of Yee video out there. I usually assume that Dems who push for gun control are illogical and well-meaning, but this guy is just a stone-cold hypocrite. Here he is complaining about bullet buttons, and at the same time helping someone he thinks is involved with the mafia import ROCKET LAUNCHERS.
As I have said too many times, liberals deliberately leave guns in the hands of violent criminals while striving to take them away from honest, law-abiding non-violent individuals.
It’s not an excerpt, no, but the link is there for your convenience so you can see the video.
I bet if enough people had ponied up under the table he would have totally changed his tune on guns.
Link the video here.

At one point there were probably in excess of 60,000 nuclear weapons worldwide. (We had 31,000 in the late ‘60’s.) Now, I’m certain that the ones the US had were dismantled. But, according to General Lebed, the man in charge of the Soviet nuclear production, the Soviets weren’t even certain how many they made. They weren’t serialized and different methods were used and the figures were lost. So, what happened to all those Soviet nukes? In short, they’re not sure. Lebed said he made 100 suitcase nukes for the KGB. When the Soviet Union fell he went to get them back and was told, “What nukes?”
So, for certain there are 100 small ones lose out there someplace. It only takes one guy with this man’s attitude to incinerate hundreds of thousands.
With Iran coming onboard, it will, at some point happen. Can you imagine that over the next 100 years it won’t? Fifty years? Ten years? 2016?
Weapons are only for governments and the criminal gangs that are controlled by the government...
That truth cannot be told too often, so have at it.

Treasonous bag of sh** be he...
Actually there is some good news there. Nukes are more fragile than people realize, and especially don't do well over time. They have a number of componants that need to be fressh, and degrade fast. Nuke stockpiling is a difficult business even in the US. So just keeping a stolen nuke around for decades pretty much guarantees it's not going to be ready for prime time. Even the high explosive triggers might not work. I would guess that for this reason, if the stolen nukes weren't going to be used anytime soon, the plutonium was removed for sale on the global market, to be used in fresh nukes sometime in the future - as well as the high explosives, to be used elsewhere as well. But the original mechanisms would be tossed.
This blogger has done nothing but purloin a video, post it to a blog and then repost it here in order to drive traffic trough his hit counter.
He is also posting in direct contravention to the wishes of the site owner, as expressed here:

It’s pimping - plain and simple.
There was a Simpsons episode where the evil character had stolen a nuclear weapon. At the moment of detonation they did that freeze frame on several of the characters, just as one of the famous apocalyptic movies had so successfully done. Then they focused in on the blast and it fizzled. Lisa bends over and reads the tag which says, “Best by November 1959.”
I do understand there are some deteriorating elements, which was why nuclear testing was so important. But I’d wager we’d get some hideously dirty explosions even if they don’t work correctly. Let’s say it’s only .5 megatons instead of 5. Still pretty messy.
You got a badge? Or do you do this because you think you’re being helpful? Because I liked his post. It drew my attention to the subject, and you were the one who disrupted the thread. Get a life.
