Gun control wants to shame charities for raising money through gun raffles.
The 2024 General Election is now over and as the nation, states, and local municipalities prepare for new representation, it appears “woke,” left-leaning lobbying groups have taken to attacking nonprofit organizations in an ill-focused attempt to gain new support.
A recent article posted by an antigun group launched an attack on a nonprofit organization dedicated to the health and well-being of children. Why? Because the charity hosted a fundraising event in which firearms were raffle prizes. They fail in their attempt to draw a nexus between charitable sportsmen’s fundraising and the criminal misuse of firearms, but they succeed in exposing the bias against lawful gun ownership.
As the article streamed details to portray a poor image of the demographic of attendees, it failed to highlight that the participants were law-abiding citizens, that tickets had to be purchased to participate and that a federal firearms license holder was on-site to ensure background checks were completed the same exact way they are completed at a firearms retailer.
