The largest gun-rights group in Georgia welcomed Chris Christie to the RedState gathering in Atlanta with fliers calling on attendees to say “Hell No” to the New Jersey Republican governor’s “Anti-Gun Agenda!”
Mr. Christie is among a number of the 2016 GOP presidential candidates who are set to appear at the three-day conservative gathering in Atlanta.
Ahead of his address there on Friday, the Georgia Gun Owners group blanketed the area with fliers that included a photograph of Mr. Christie and President Obama walking arm-in-arm. Just above their smiling faces is a thought bubble with the image of a gun in a circle with a slash through it.
The flier points to news reports that highlight Mr. Christie’s “C” grade with the National Rifle Association, as well as some comments he made in the past signaling his support for some of his state’s gun restrictions.
