Arkansas Firing Range Says It is A "Muslim Free Zone"
An indoor firing range in Hot Springs, Arkansas has declared itself a "Muslim Free Zone." Jan Morgan, owner of The Gun Cave Indoor Firing Range and conservative online journalist sets out ten reasons for her decision, ranging from strange behavior recently by two Muslim patrons at her firing range to concern about ISIS and honor killings. She says she has chosen to "err on the side of caution" since she has "no way of discerning which muslims will or will not kill in the name of their religion and the commands in their koran." Addressing the issue of religious discrimination, Morgan says: "I view Islam as a theocracy, not a religion." KRMG News says that comments are flooding the firing range's Facebook page in support of it decision.
