Prominent gun control advocate California Senator Leland Yee pushes for laws the law-abiding obey, but says he doesn't care about criminals getting guns

The problem with gun control is that it mainly disarms law-abiding, good citizens.  Yee fought for laws that stopped law-abiding citizens from getting guns, but behind the scenes he helped criminals get them.  The statement below obviously refers to criminals getting guns.  From Fox News:

. . . Despite his stances on gun control, Yee allegedly described himself as "agnostic" in these dealings.  

"People want to get whatever they want to get. Do I care? No, I don't care. People need certain things," he said, according to the complaint.  

Court documents say he was just one of more than two dozen people caught up in the five-year federal probe. Initially, agents were interested in going after Raymond “Shrimp Boy” Chow, a notorious gangster who ran a Chinese criminal organization with ties to Hong Kong.   

According to the FBI’s 137-page complaint, Chow and five other defendants laundered $2.3 million for undercover agents between March 2011 and December 2013. According to the FBI, the defendants were told the money came from crimes like illegal gambling, drug dealing and marijuana growing. 

Chow, who was previously convicted on gun charges, was recently celebrated by the Chinese community in the area as an example of successful rehabilitation. He has been praised in recent months for his work in the immigrant-heavy community. 

Most of the suspects netted in the FBI investigation are linked to the Chinatown brotherhood association that Chow heads known as Ghee Kung Tong. The group’s headquarters were raided Wednesday and members were charged with trafficking in illicit guns, liquor and cigarettes. . . .
