US Shooting Range 'Bans Muslims'

A right wing gun nut has declared her shooting range "a Muslim-free zone."

Jan Morgan, who owns The Gun Cave Indoor Shooting Range in Hot Springs, Arkansas made the decision based on what she described as "safety concerns" and "threats."

Morgan claims that US authorities have asked her to exercise judgment in refusing service to people who she feels might be unstable or a threat in general. 

The twisted gun nut believes that this offers her the authority to deny service broadly to Muslims. Morgan released a sickening 10 point statement online in an attempt to justify her anti-Muslim hate.

In the statement Morgan claims to have studied the Koran and found violence littered throughout the Holy text. Meanwhile she also cites alleged "threats" from people inside the Islamic community.

She added: "I not only have the right, but a responsibility to provide a safe environment for my customers. I do not believe my decision is religious discrimination because I do not classify islam as a religion.

"It is a theocracy/terrorist organization that hides behind the mask of religion in order to achieve its mission of world domination."

The move is being backed by activists from the US gun lobby and the right-wing Tea Party. US authorities have so far failed to take action against Morgan or The Gun Cave Indoor Shooting Range.
