    Default Hamburgers, hot dogs, brats and guns at picnic

    http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30747452/

    TOWN OF ONALASKA, Wis. - A picnic open to the public at a park in La Crosse County will offer free brats and hamburgers and an invitation to bring your gun.

    Organizer Hubert Hoffman said Sunday's picnic at Marvin Gardens Park in the Town of Onalaska celebrates a recent opinion from state Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen that citizens who openly carry firearms should not be cited for disorderly conduct.

    Hoffman said the picnic is open to everyone, including children and those who don't want to bring a gun.
    The gun rights advocate said it's a way to let the public know that openly carrying a firearm isn't dangerous or risky.

    La Crosse County sheriff's Capt. Mike Horstman said Hoffman is "legally entitled" to host the open carry picnic.

    Sarchasm (sar-chasm); the gulf that exists between the author of sarcastic wit, and the one who doesn't get it!

    While many claim to support the right, precious few support the practice.

    He was referring to the mantra of the anti-OC people about a year ago. Basically, their arguments boiled down to, "By OC'ing, you are going to scare everyone and then they are going to rise up and lobby the legislature to make OC'ing illegal and restrict us non-showoff gun owners even farther, blah, blah, blah..". In other words, You're going to ruin it for everyone....


    Even though they have been proven wrong time and again, you will still occasionally hear it mumbled by those who swear it is just a matter of time....

    Now that's funny...
    When you are called a racist, it just means you won an argument with an Obama supporter.
