In the five months since Hot Springs, Arkansas, gun range owner Jan Morgan banned Muslims from her facilities, she has seen business quadruple. She has also faced threats and the prospect of lawsuits, which so far, have not materialized. Morgan owns Gun Cave Indoor Firing Range. According to Fox News, Morgan decided to ban Muslims after “two customers she deemed suspicious” showed up in September. Since that time, she has excluded those “she believes to be Muslim based upon their names.” Morgan sees it as a safety issue. She said, “We are dealing in lethal firearms. I am not going to let a Nazi shoot in here, or a Ku Klux Klan member in here, either.” The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has written Attorney General Eric Holder asking him to intervene. In the letter, CAIR said, “Given the recent spike in anti-Muslim rhetoric, including Islamophobic statements by government officials, community leaders and media outlets, death threats, and other bias incidents targeting Muslims, I urge you to investigate this matter soon.” CAIR argued that banning Muslims from the shooting range “is a violation of federal laws prohibiting racial and religious discrimination.” The ACLU is also asked the DOJ to do something about Morgan’s policies, and they want to talk to any Muslim who gets turned away from Morgan’s shooting range. But Morgan is standing her ground. She compared “offering target practice to potential terrorists to flight schools offering lessons to the 9/11 terrorists.” A caption on an image of Morgan with a gun says, “I am the infidel your imam warned you about.”

POSTERS: I do read every single reply but can’t always answer you.
While I agree with this woman, the EEOC will almost certainly shut her down.
I’m glad that she isn’t bowing to political correctness. As a firearms dealer, she has an obligation to not sell firearms to anyone she thinks could be dangerous.
Put her in charge of Homeland Security.
An outright ban is just stupid. Just put pictures of pigs on the walls and give away bacon bits.
I’m not sure whether making the targets pigs would help or not.
Unarguable logic.
Her business, her property, her Right.
It’s about time we ALL start defending our Rights, like this tough little lady is doing.
I smell a lawsuit..............unfortunately.
She has more balls than most men nowadays..
Oh yeah, wouldn’t you trust these GUYS with heavy weaponry?!
How about a Black Pamper?
If you follow/support:
— the Hadith
— German National Socialism
— illegal drug trade
— pornography industry
you are banned from this store.
Any flaws in this?
” Put her in charge of Homeland Security.”
Nah......she would do a good job, and we can’t have any of that!
Just wondering - is there any law pertaining to the use of bacon grease to polish the wooden floors or door handles?
If she sells “Prophet” targets, she will increase business by orders of magnitude.
Oh yea, include little cans of pig shi...er...pig Obamastuff.
This guy needlessly brought legal troubles on himself. He could have simply offered free pork sandwiches to all his customers and used some creative art on the targets. Same effect, no liberal cause and “outrage”. Then again maybe he wanted the publicity and the fight.
Wheres Jihadi Boy ???
