Brandon High School Principal Bryan Marshall commented on the raffle saying, “There’s lots of gun giveaways in Mississippi that I know of. Most people do it the same way, nobody actually handles a weapon because you can’t just give a weapon away without it being registered, you’ve got to go through the process.”
