Protesters want a 308 Winchester semi-automatic rifle to be removed from the event scheduled to take place at Rex's Innkeeper on Wednesday. It is one of several guns and other non-weapon prizes in a raffle.
“That gun just doesn't belong in our community, in any community,” said Jodi Benz, a parent of two children in the Waunakee School District.
Benz said she plans to protest outside the event on Wednesday night.
“None of this protest is about anti-gun. It is about the ARs, the AKs, the big brother of it,”said Benz.

Proud to have had the small-minded community of Madison, WI in the rearview mirror for nearly 23 years now. All I do is look back and laugh.

The idiot doesn’t even understand or even realize how stupid they sound.......................
They stomped their little feet and whined in Moscow on the Madison.
Still didn’t stop the charity gun raffle.

Now, which guns CAN I have, Mz Benz?
Nothing scares the bejeebers out of liberals like a semi-automatic rifle.
Which, when used properly, is as harmless as a baby’s bottom.
ARs, the AKs ...Humm ... big brother, humm ... I vote for a GAU-19 as big brother ...

Wifey came away with TWO raffle guns from Friends of NRA this year. Not bad.
Well since you value them so much more highly than you do

How much do you make by ripping off traffic from Free Republic?
Now its homicidal vans...
