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 says 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 says the picnic is open to everyone, including children and those who don't want to bring a gun.

I hope the organizers stay alert. This is the sort of thing that Obama’s thugs would crash to cause trouble.

Having lived in Milwaukee for 12 years, before returning to Ohio, I’m pretty sure the “BRATS” in the title refers to sausages and not children!

"La Crosse County sheriff's Capt. Mike Horstman says Hoffman is "legally entitled" to host the open carry picnic."
Gee, thanks for your approval. Already got it from James Madison when he wrote the second amendment though...
To: ButThreeLeftsDo; Revolting cat!
Mmmmm! Brats!

Hoffman says the picnic is open to everyone, including children I thought this WAS the brats they were referring to.

I always enjoyed being in Sheboygan when my corporate office was located there.

Sounds like risky business to me (especially if alcoholic beverages are included).
All it would take to create a national anti-gun incident for the gun-grabbers to publicize forever would be for one 0bamaTroll to show up and "act up" -- and for one conservative to brandish (or worse -- discharge) a weapon in response...

I’ll wager that there will be some rules and they will be strictly enforced.
I’m not worried. They’ll do just fine.
