THE UNITED WAY IN OTERO COUNTY WON’T BE HOLDING ITS GUN RAFFLE. UNITED WAY WORLDWIDE TOLD THE COUNTY OFFICE TO HALT THE RAFFLE … WHICH THE ALBUQUERQUE JOURNAL REPORTS INCLUDED MORE THAN 100 FIREARMS THAT INCLUDED AN AR-15 RIFLE, A SHOTGUN, AND A VARIETY OF OTHER CALIBER HANDGUNS.
THE ORDER CAME IN A CEASE AND DESIST ORDER LAST WEEK. UNITED WAY WORLDWIDE ORDERED THE RAFFLE TO BE CANCELLED, SAYING PUTTING MORE GUNS ON THE STREETS TO GENERATE FUNDS FOR THE AGENCY IS THE WRONG APPROACH.
