Back in the good old days, Oregon’s legislature met every other year. I would assume that most State legislators have real lives. What’s wrong with taking a vacation? 5 days, 5 weeks...five months, if they can afford it. With assistants and a phone, they can get things done, in the unlikely event that anything needs doing.
Looks more like a tax write-off for a vacation
“I have zero sympathy or liking for the CCP, but you go to another country, you abide by their laws. This guy is not very smart.”
He also violated US laws.
That's because you're a 'peasant' and they are 'special.'
This is the kind of irresponsible firearm owner who leaves his firearm unsecured.
Thank goodness the CCP s TSA found it rather than a child.
The poor guy trusted the CCP drones to use common sense.
I'd wait to drop it in a terminal trashcan. If it's found on the plane there's a passenger list. In the terminal they'd have to pull in thousands of people. If you wiped your prints off it'd be tough to link it to you.
Also, It'd be less likely to even be discovered.
There are cameras in the terminal.
There may not be cameras in the lavatory.
Dump it in the lavatory trash, get off the plane, go through customs, don’t sweat like a pig, and get on the next flight to the States.
Oh, for Pete’s sake.
They don’t frisk muslim women nor make them take off their burkha but God forbid an American is just trying to live their lives....
Not on a 5 week vacation unless it is a bereavement flight - certainly not 5 weeks, a week or 10 days at the most.
You'd think a state legislator would have a better clue about state law. There is no registration in Washington state...yet.
No Excuse IMO.
If you own or are in possession/use of a Firearm or multiple Firearms you need to know where and what CONDITION IT/THEY ARE IN. NO EXCEPTIONS !!!
Long Guns (Shotguns and Rifles) are slightly different CONDITIONS from Handguns. Shotguns are way more likely to be used for Home Defense than a Rifle but are not exclusive to Home Defense.
This applies to All Firearms: Pistol or Long Gun it doesn't matter. As the owner or possessor of a Firearm it's Your Responsibility.
I include any Firearms that are in any state of function IE: At the Gunsmith's or in the Home that are being built/repaired or under modification. The Firearm Owner is responsible for maintaining a mental list of any and all Firearms that are currently owned or possessed.
The same applies to Ammunition/Magazines/Speed Loaders as well.
If one has so many Firearms that they can't remember the status of them mentally then keep a list somewhere.
Again this My Opinion.
It was a Legume Bomb. (Castor Beans to produce Ricin)
Serial number...
I had a security clearance revocation client, Eagle Scout, unblemished record, forget his .38 was in his backpack going through TSA at the San Antonio airport. Got arrested, lost his clearance (I got it back for him), truly just for not checking his backpack before he left the house.
What’s this got to do with Oregon legislature?
Yep, that's true, but it would take a long time to trace. Could be from any country. By then I'd be back in the US.
I think I would have pitched it in the toilet and said nothing.
That is a good point. :)
Chinese prosecutor says we’ll do all the expectin’ around here.
dont go there
