Wilson, R-Longview, said he discovered the unloaded pistol in his carry-on bag after it passed through airport security in Portland without notice.

A Washington state senator was arrested at the airport in Hong Kong and charged with possession of an unregistered firearm, his office said.

Sen. Jeff Wilson, R-Longview, was detained at Hong Kong International Airport on Friday night after he found a pistol in his carry-on bag and reported it to customs officials.

He was released on bail Sunday and faces a hearing Oct. 30.

      In your country it’s an everyone feels the need to carry a gun issue, in my country it’s a gang gun violence made possible by guns from your country issue.

      Not the same issue at all.
