A Florida gun store operator has banned Muslims from his establishment, arguing that he has a right to deny service to anyone he considers a threat. Andy Hallinan made his decision after the shootings at military installations in Chattanooga, Tenn., last week.
Florida Gun Supply of Inverness, Fla., was declared a “Muslim-free zone” in a video Hallinan posted online over the weekend.
In response, President Barack Obama’s Department of Justice announced that it would launch a civil rights investigation into Hallinan’s establishment.
That’s the Obama administration: a radical Islamic extremist kills five American servicemen and the Pentagon suggests that recruiting offices keep their window blinds closed from now on. But if there’s even a hint than a Muslim could possibly see his civil rights violated at some indeterminate point in the future, Katie bar the door.
“I have a moral and legal responsibility to ensure the safety of all patriots in my community, and so effective immediately, I’m declaring Florida Gun Supply as a Muslim-free zone,” Hallinan announced in a video posted to Facebook. “I will not arm and train those who wish to do harm to my fellow patriots.”
The video had been viewed about 35,000 times by Tuesday morning and doubled that number over the next few hours as news got around.
“I’m not going to be asking every person who walks in what their religious background is. That’s not my business,” Hallinan told WFLA (H/T BizPac Review). “But I do have the right to deny firearms and training to anyone I deem as a threat.”

That audit will happen anyway...it’s automatic with these statist bastages..
Obozo is right on it.
Call it the Pork chop Express.
And part of the Muslim religious belief is the destruction of all infidels.
You've seen enough evidence of that to know that is not mere hyperbole.
Should American citizens be forced by a rogue, Muslim influenced federal government to provide arms to facilitate our own destruction under the guise of religious liberty?
“And part of the Muslim religious belief is the destruction of all infidels.”
Not all Muslims believe that.
How am I supposed to have religious freedom if I don’t give it to others?
Sure they do. They just don't tell you that.

When was the last time we were attacked by Pentecostals or Hare Krishnas?
God gave you discernment. Use it.

I’ve had a muslim room mate before, and spent time living around muslims overseas. Had a room once in a hotel filled with them. Still alive. Amazing, isn’t it...
Not really.
And he doesn’t have a legal leg to stand on. This guy committed a very public form of commercial suicide, and then doubled down on it with the Confederate flag.
He is a best an idiot.
He has a right to do that, and it would be effective. Publicly stating that he will not sell a product to a person of a religion is against multiple state, federal, and local laws.
Obama would be banned from the gun store.
