masterblaster72 0 #1 June 7, 2014 God bless 'Murica! Gun rafflers entice US voters QuoteGun sweepstakes have been a feature of life in parts of the US for years. But now elected officials offer guns as prizes for prospective voters. There are all the trappings of a normal raffle draw; a tombola drum filled with tickets and a table where the prizes are proudly laid out on display. But instead of the usual fare of food hampers or boxes of chocolate, the owners of the winning tickets stand to gain a new gun. The grand prize is a Remington 870 Wingmaster 12-gauge shotgun with gold inlay. Four other firearms are also up for grabs. The raffle is part of Steve Wagner's campaign to win the Republican primary for Sheriff of Hendricks County in Indiana. Tickets cost $10, and the winners must pass a background check at a local gun shop before collecting their prize. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

champu 1 #3 June 7, 2014 So people go bird hunting and or clay shooting in that area and the guy knows his target audience, so what? If they ran background checks on winners it's really no different than any other "get out and vote" effort. The prominent photo of the woman standing there with her finger on the trigger solicits a slow head shake though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BartsDaddy 4 #5 June 8, 2014 The thread title is alitle miss leading. There is no vote required to win. It is a fund raising raffle. Handguns are only used to fight your way to a good rifle Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
