Oregon GOP Raffles Rifles in Honor of MLK, Abraham Lincoln
In honor of MLK, Abraham Lincoln
There’s nothing like a good rifle raffle to commemorate nonviolent civil-rights leaders who were shot to death. At least that’s what the leaders of Oregon’s Multnomah County Republican Party thought when they decided to auction off rifles in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Abraham Lincoln. Tickets are $10 apiece, the drawing will take place at the Lincoln Day Dinner—at which the keynote speaker will be none other than Sen. Ted Cruz’s father, Rafael—and the winner will take home a shiny new AR-15 rifle or the handgun of their choice.
