Republican candidate holds 'machine gun social'
SC candidate raffles off AK-47 at campaign rally
A candidate to be South Carolina's next National Guard leader skipped the fiery speeches for firepower, launching his campaign with what he called a "machine-gun social."
The Greenville News reports some 500 people came out to a shooting range Saturday for Republican Dean Allen's political rally. He wants to be the next adjutant general, the person who leads the state's National Guard.
Attendees paid $25 for barbecue, a clip of bullets for target practice and the chance to win a semiautomatic AK-47. Whoever wins the rifle will have to undergo a background check.
Allen says he is an Army veteran who wanted to celebrate Second Amendment rights. South Carolina is the only state that elects its adjutant general.

How gross and repugnant can the Republicans get while their minions eat it up so willingly? How low and repulsive can they get? They seem to compete with each other as if in some fraternity party gone awry to see who is the most repulsive of all. What's next?
