Wanna Glock?

Arizona Republican fund-raiser to raffle off same brand of handgun used in the attempted assassination of Gabrielle Giffords!

From Raw Story.

The Republican Party in Arizona's Pima County, which is represented by Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ), is in the midst of a fundraising raffle, $10 per entry.

The local party sent out its e-newsletter late last week advertising the raffle. On the third page of the seven-page document, a large illustration of the gun appears with the headline "Help Pima GOP get out the vote and maybe help yourself to a new Glock .40."

"Tickets will go quickly for this firearm!" the blurb in the newsletter warns.

Pima County GOP did not respond to requests for comment.
