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.

    We share the longest continuous land border in the world, pretty much all illegal guns in our country come from your country. I guess we could build a wall and make you guys pay for it, you seem like the kind of guy that likes ideas like that.

    Guess you also think Columbia has no responsibility to share for the cocaine that makes its way to the USA and it’s your own problem that you should tackle by yourself, right?

    And if your neighbor is noisy, that’s your problem, put more insulation in your walls!

        Oh yeah, I read properly, to you it’s not a US problem if your guns make their way to Canada and are used to kill people, I got all of that, don’t worry.
