Republican Tim D’Annunzio, a candidate in the Republican, a candidate in the 8th Congressional District, holds his second “Machine Gun Social” Tuesday night in Belmont [NC].
The fundraiser starts at 6:30 p.m. at Shooters Express, 2 Caldwell Dr. in Belmont. It runs to 9 p.m. or “until the ammo runs out.” Cost is $25 per magazine. MP-5s and M-16s will be available.
Guests will be eligible to win an AR-15 from Shooters Express. D’Annunzio held a similar event last month in Fayetteville.
Apparently, D’Annunzio is big on the Second Amendment gun thing. And then there’s the Republican vampire in Florida (Jonathon “The Impaler” Sharkey) running for President.
Other fundraiser: the $25 per shot dinner.
That is so cool!
That second amendment gun “THING”? What’s next ?
people standing up for that wacky freedom of speech bullshit.
I just don’t get this… The machine gun guy seems perfectly fine to me. You’re actually complaining about this??? Have you ever fired a gun? Have you ever driven anything as big as a dump truck? Have you ever operated heavy machinery?
The vampire guy though is really out there.
How many hundreds of promises has BHO broken?
How many more promises will he break before we
finally toss him out of office?
beats the hell out of dry chicken at a boring dinner.I would gladly pay 25 bucks to shoot a full auto m16 or mp5
but then you gun hating socialist progressive liberals hate people having guns because then your govt might have to fear its people like it is supposed to instead of the other way around
gee i wonder when one of these enthusiasts will have moment and start shooting everyone at one of these fund raisers…

The US Government / Army must be quaking in their boots at all those armed yokels.
Sounds like loads of fun to me and I am pretty liberal. Except I’m not sure how long a fluffy rabbit like me would survive in there with all those bunny hunters and their guns.
But dig the cool shootersexpress.com retro website! It’s 1999 all over again. Wow!
#4: Where did you get the idea I’m complaining? I just think it’s bizarre and wacky. And yes, I’ve fired a number of guns. Had a girlfriend once who killed a guy with hers. Not into trucks. Fast sports cars, at least back when I was wealthy.
#5: FYI, if you’re directing that at me, you should know I’m opposed to most gun control laws. Just not for the same reasons.
I think this is a great idea, a little creative fund raising.
My uncle has a genuine Tommy Gun, and it is the most fun gun to fire I’ve ever experienced. Lordy, the thing really has some kickback, and it’s tough to keep it level. Ever shot an entire case of beer cans lined up in a nice row? Now, that is one fun 10 seconds worth of bullets. Makes me remember that old TV show, The Untouchables.
Can anyone name the star of that show? It was a great one.
I think he’s just mad that at $25 a magazine, average people can actually attend. Unlike the $1000 a plate dinners most politicians throw.
Somehow in the face of all that’s going on I don’t think traditional republican campaign technique are going to be useful.
#9 – calling something “bizarre and wacky” would be complaining in my book.
Anyways… I’m not seeing the problem here. Politicians meet with people doing ALL sorts of activities. From quilting to shooting. Big deal.
Just more hysteria around evil guns.
For confused foreigners, firing machine guns at election time is not limited to places like Afghanistan and Iraq. In America, too. Suicide bombings and sacrificing goats, not so much.

At least he is sticking to his political beliefs unlike Obama who promised a lot during the campaign but has quickly back tracked as President. The latest is that he said the public would have 5 days to review any bill that hits his desk. So what does he do with the health scam bill? Signs it in 36 hours before ANYONE has a chance to read or understand what is in it.
I laugh at the wingnuts bitchin’ and moanin’ about Obama breaking his problems. STFU guys, you didn’t vote for him, you didn’t want him to do those things he promised to do. So you should be happy about him breaking his promises to us liberals.
Sheesh, incoherent, clueless wingnuts. Y’all must be Tea Party members.
#18 Geez, breaking his promises. Error between seat and keyboard.

That’s awesome, the only thing that could have made that commercial better is if she had a smaller nighty.
