Gun range's ban on Muslims draws fire
FoxNews.com ^ | January 28, 2015 | Adam Shaw

Morgan said she is not worried about anyone coming after her, because she packs heat.

In the five months since Jan Morgan banned Muslims from her gun range in Hot Springs, Ark., business has boomed and predictions of a lawsuit brought by federal civil rights enforcers have so far proved inaccurate.

Morgan, who claims keeping Muslims out of her Gun Cave Indoor Firing Range is a matter of public safety and not a constitutional issue, says she made the decision in September after two customers she deemed suspicious visited. She said their furtive behavior and cellphone ringtones of “Allahu Akhbar” prompted her to revise her range’s policies.

“We are dealing in lethal firearms,” Morgan told FoxNews.com. “I’m not going to let a Nazi shoot in here, or a Ku Klux Klan member in here, either.”

Morgan said she excludes those she believes to be Muslim based on their names. She says business is up, but she has gotten threats, which she brushed off.

“I’m not going to let a Nazi shoot in here, or a Ku Klux Klan member in here either.”

I doubt her decision draws fire from anyone she would want to be her customer.

The point people are missing is what the hell is a bunch of muslims doing in Hot Springs, Arkansas? They’re all over this country from small hamlet to large cities. And the keep on coming.

When the time comes to fight the local cops, in lock step with the feds, will take out any and all who would do harm to a muslim.

Sikhs carry ceremonial knives on their traditional dress. IIRC the knife represents their tradition of being armed so as to defend themselves against muslims.

Yeah like Chris Kyle did, right?
Not.
2 words for her gun range .
Private. Club. And with lots of uncovered women packing.
She still needs to watch her back . We know what group kills when they feel “ dis honored”

Surre it is . You keep a gun on every nut job, right.
This range owner felt like Muslims are nut jobs and thus a threat especially armed and in close quarters. God bless her courage

She basically gave some muz dirtbag on Facebook the Ann Barnhardt treatment. She posted her home address and everything, and called them out as too cowardly to do anything.

Oh, and “Not Guilty.”

:^)

I’m with you. Discriminate on your good judgement, and
don’t advertise it.

you needed a comma and I added a - instead

If I read you right, I agree. The whole damn country bows down now. And hate to say, but it’s everywhere.

Aforementioned “federal civil rights enforcers” would look very bad pursuing anyone’s rights to go to a gun range. I think they will back off.

Can you just see Obammy greeting “Najib” at the White Hut door, all smiles about his pistols, rifles, and bullets? A PR nightmare.

This is the third time this story has appeared here on FR in three months.

What gives, I know it’s in the news that often, but she must be getting a go response, because here it is again.

”… unless you make this a private organization, ..."

Before I shoot my mouth off (but not at you), what makes you think that Ms Morgan’s business is not a private business? Did I miss something in the article?

....”There is almost no way to legally prevent Muslims from signing up if they want to, unless you make this a private organization, which would change the whole structure of the business”....

Wonder which Muslim Organization is going to sue her.....they love to fight against anyone telling them no.

I agree she really can’t prevent them unless she becomes Private. However the key word is “Prevent”.

What they’ll do is shut her down.

The Wake n' Bacon is a prototype for an alarm clock that wakes you to the smell of cooking bacon. It accomplishes this by means of a computer-controlled homemade EasyBake lightbulb oven, into which you load a slice of bacon in a pan every night before bed. Twenty minutes before your alarm goes off, the oven begins slow-cooking the pork-product. Great idea, but there are two critical flaws: it's probably not sanitary to leave bacon sitting at room-temp overnight; and now that I use my mobile phone for an alarm clock, this kind of thing is too bulky to consider as a practical add-on for my wake-up system.
