"Hudson picnic to feature speeches and guns
By Associated Press

Oct. 9, 2009 | Hudson — A TEA Party set for Hudson later this month will feature hot drinks and political speeches - and guns.

TEA stands for Taxed Enough Already, and the Hudson Open Carry TEA Party is scheduled for Oct. 17 in Lakefront Park. Organizers tout it as a picnic to celebrate their rights to demonstrate and to carry arms.

Events aimed at exercising the First and Second amendments have sprung up across Wisconsin since Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen said in April that citizens have a constitutional right to openly carry firearms.

Organizers in Hudson said all of the other events have been peaceful. But at least one store owner plans to put up a sign banning the guns inside her shop.

Police Chief Marty Jensen said he does not plan to increase police patrols for the event." NewsWatch - JSOnline

The one store owner had to vote for Obama. Hope she doesn't have less customers because of her flaky attitude, you know boycott, ouch, did I say that? At least the police chief has some common sense. Well good for the organizers in Hudson. Anyone have time, try to go.
