Tea Party With Guns Held in Hudson (Wisconsin)
Hundreds of armed people filled a Hudson park Saturday afternoon as part of an anti-tax and pro-second amendment rally.
“It’s our right to carry guns and I think everyone needs to know,” said a gun rally supporter.
Openly carrying a firearm is legal in Wisconsin, in fact the only legal way to have a firearm there is to openly display it, but it is rare to see so many people doing so at once.
Not everyone near the tea party was keen on the idea of so many people carrying guns. “I thought not in my backyard. I didn’t like the idea and i still don’t like the idea,” said Greg Leaf, a gun rally opposer.
Some came to the park hoping to change laws. “I’m here today to support hopefully getting a conceal and carry permit in wisconsin,” said Spc. Alex Getty.
