Friends of the NRA Raffling Off Guns at Garguilo’s
Today, Andrew Gounardes shared that The Friends of the NRA are having a fundraiser on April 12th with raffles for guns. The fundraiser is at Gargiulo’s Restaurant in Coney Island, Brooklyn.
Gargiulos is a family restaurant so I was surprised to see this. I went to the site and saw:
Their flyer explains all the guns you can win – it’s like a penny auction for the Friends of the NRA.
Is it legal to raffle off guns? Unbelievably it is – But it shouldn’t be! Getting a gun shouldn’t be like getting a party basket filled with wine and crackers.
Hopefully, Garguilo’s will say or do something that is right for Brooklyn. Because it isn’t okay to raffle off weapons. Sign the petition. Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams:
I know that Andrew Gounardes, Moms Demand Action and Fight Back Bay Ridge aren’t going to let this go. I’m sure other groups are going to be upset this is going on in here as well. Why? Because Brooklyn is our home and our families are here.
