#1 Read about this in TheTruthAboutGuns site, yesterday. Strong support, but also concern about the illegality of discriminating on the basis of religion. Could argue Islam is political/legal system so no legal problem; if that flies, then could also ban Democrats which might be closer to solving the problem.

#2 They've gone about it in entirely the wrong manner.

#3 I like that second article, Besoeker. Also, it seems to me that, without barring an entire religion, that Hot Springs shopkeeper would be justified in refusing to deal with someone in the country illegally or someone who didn't understand the language well enough to follow safety instructions.

#4 Ironically TW, 'Gun Cave's' real challenge isn't from Mooslims, it's from our own government.

#5 Recent polls (2009) by CNN indicate less than 4 out of 10 support stricter gun control laws. Here. Among Democrats, about 6 in 10 want stricter gun control laws.

#6 Anyway, it seems like a prudent thing to do--that is ban Muslims from shooting ranges--stops sudden jihad although it seems like a really dumb place to suddenly go jihadist. Good way to get shot. As I understand it the Muslims have their own shooting ranges in the U.S. I'm not sure we know about all of them.

#7 This would have been easy to cast in a religion neutral light. Ban anyone who advocates violence against other religions. Done. And, while it may disproportionately affect one certain religion, it is not on its face discriminatory.

#9 I reckon I'll have to check that place out and give him my business next time I am shopping for some more rounds to one of my weapons. I usually get mine from Academy, but usually get my firearms at the gun show when they come here.
