Arkansas Gun Range banned Muslims in September 2014. Florida Gun Supply did it after the Chattanooga jihad massacre in July 2015. They were excoriated as racist and bigoted. But can those who were doing the excoriating supply gun store owners with a reliable way to distinguish a Muslim who is buying a gun to wage jihad from a Muslim who is buying it for any other reason? No, of course not. And now Abu Salih al-Amriki shows the wisdom of prudent steps for self-defense. What the gun stores did was not illegal: Hamas-linked CAIR sued Florida Gun Supply, and lost.
More on this story. “Islamic State Fighter Calls on Muslims to Exploit 2nd Amendment for Terror Attacks,” by Dan Riehl, Breitbart, December 28, 2017 (thanks to Ken):
An alleged ISIS fighter with an American accent and one leg, identified as Abu Salih al-Amriki, used a web video to call on Muslims to “take advantage of the gun laws” in America to carry out terror attacks.
The man also denounced President Donald Trump, according to reports.
The fighter appeared in a propaganda video released on Wednesday saying Trump’s war on Islam was making the US more vulnerable to terror attacks and would help fuel support globally.
Using the name Abu Salih al-Amriki, the fighter wore khaki fatigues and had a gun strapped to him as he condemned President Trump for playing up a clash of civilizations.
The Daily Mail quoted extensively from the video:
“You entered into the White House on the back of your crusader rhetoric, which the fake media has pressured you to tone down,” he said in the video, speaking in what sounded like a New York City-area accent.
“Your feelings and hatred towards Islam has already been revealed … you are now witnessing your fake victory.”
“Your war against Islam has only made your homeland more vulnerable and your society is cracking into chaos.”
He referred to President Trump as a “dog of Rome.”…

Leave the constitution alone. Guns don’t kill people, people kill people. Even if guns were banned they’d be procured illegally. Also if it’s not a gun it’s a knife, if it’s not a knife it’s a rock, if it’s not a rock it’s someone who’s simply bigger than you

I agree completely. Prohibition did not stop the manufacture and distribution of alcohol. It gave organized crime the biggest leg-up they’ve ever had. If the Second Amendment were to be repealed, that same organized crime would fill the void with firearms that they would build. Many unemployed machinists would gladly go to work in mob gun factories, in order to feed, clothe, and house their families.

Good comments all. Always nice to know my neighbors to the south are appreciating freedoms we gave away without much of a fight.
Firearms are basically about power balances. I’m always bemused by those who would rather that only the State and criminals (often the same thing) have that power.
Without a balance of power, it’s inevitable that tyranny grows while rule of law withers. This is the opinion expressed in the US Constitution, and by many of the men who crafted it in their own writings. They weren’t dummies – they knew about Man, History and Philosophy.
The protections against the State were put in for a reason, and it’s time all these cozy softheaded leftists stopped calling them fools.

I live in Germany and we have about 1000+++ percent less gun violence, Yes it is too late for USA to get all the guns away, At least someone on a no fly list should not be permitted to buy guns- But The mighty lobby NRA (all bow down and kiss their money) will even fight that logic, Cop killing bullets fine- Machine type assult guns fine. Enjoy your Rock and roll in Las Vegas??? Lets get some commen sense gun laws fast in the USA.
Z says
Eyes because it’s so perfectly peaceful in Germany. There were no rape gangs that assaulted women on New Years. There are no no-go zones anywhere. Women are perfectly safe to go out at night and people can sell alcohol and pork anywhere because you gave all your freedom and rights to your government to keep you safe… oh wait
Steve Daly says
Right now most jihad attacks are in Muslim-promoting cities and countries and sanctuary cities. Sweden might be more courageous in standing up to the Muslim migration if they had constitutional protections like America’s second amendment.
Rey Ybarra says
You are going to need guns to defend yourself since your fearless leader Merkel has let in so many jihadis with her idiotic immigration policies!!
Chand says
Very true, Tom Parry. One can just go into a gun shop in the States with a driving license and buy an army type assault rifle, maybe a Chinese one for a hundred dollars, buy army issue bullets and go about enjoying the toy. Hopefully in a shooting range. But with WW 3 upon us, shouldn’t the govt. care about who gets to buy these deadly weapons?
I support the right of citizens to protect themselves but surely there is a deadly threat of these guns falling into jihadi hands. Difficult problem.
But there is the problem of illegal guns too. Dedicated Jihadis can get them in the black market, i’m sure. But homegrown, lone wolf type individuals, self radicalized in the States, won’t face any major hurdles in procuring one legally too, with today’s gun laws.

“army type assault rifle”
😀
You lose already.
Just sayin’.

Where do you live dude?
Somewhere off the Left coast of California or something? Maybe in Hiiighest part of Colorado, or the most Canadian bit of North Leftern Washington State?
Damn, it’s like an advert by the Brady campaign…..

President Trump was simply defending American citizens against un-American imported criminal violence, which he correctly identified as islamic in origin. Therefore this was not a war on islam but a policy to exclude it as a source of danger to American citizens. Mr Trump has therefore only been doing his job. Now, if these characters are proclaiming that the President, in fulfilling his proper domestic duties, is carrying out an act of war against them, we have to ask if these characters should really be in the United States of America at all since they clearly have no regard for the safety of their fellow citizens, which makes THEM enemies of the United States. In which case, they should either (a) be interred indefinitely or (b) if possible, stripped of their citizenship and deported.

Well, we knew this was coming, didn’t we?
One reason we knew it was such a good idea to start flooding the country with “refugees” after we invaded Iraq.
We can thank President Cheney & his ventriloquist dummie Chimp George and Presedent B. Hussein O. for this continued stealth invasion of America.
It’s our gun availability that will make this conflict really kick in one of these days.
Awesome times ahead.
Thomas Kimball says
Go ahead Muslim morons bring it to a head in America and see how long you last!!!

In this context, nothing is more disgraceful than a black Muslim–the stereotypical slave of Islam.
Every fiber in that POS’s being should be resisting Islam.
Islam: where freedom ends and slavery begins.
Kiki says
The ISIS propagandists probably chose the man who had one leg as an attempt to “guilt” followers into carrying out attacks. It’s pure manipulation.
I know that some people fall for ISIS’s propaganda, but I can’t understand why–this is a Nazi-like group that rapes young girls, used children and families as human shields in Mosul (even shooting in the back the ones who tried to flee), call for attacks on civilians worldwide…..ISIS hates everyone who disagrees with them, which means the majority of the world’s population is a target for them.
How can anyone think any of that rhetoric is sane??
Thankfully there are lots of men and women who fight back and try to help the victims of terrorism. That helps, knowing that many good people are out there.
Cheer Bear Girl says
All the more reason we need to keep the 2nd amendment. We need to be armed not defenseless against the Jihadis already in the country.

I do not regard this ‘humanoid’ as a full member of the many and varied races of the children of Man and or/God-Paramatman-Bhagwan.
Saffronize, Sanskritize, Civilize, Self-Realize.
To this humanoid, I say, “Acquire an education and join the Human Race.”

Ladies and gentlemen: Please consider joining the National rifle Association even if you don’t personally own a firearm. Insist on ALL of your Constitutional and natural rights. There is nothing these hajji pieces of trash would like better than being armed in a disarmed Amerika.
LeftisruiningCanada says
Agreed. Never trust anyone who wants to take your firearms, or the right to use them in self defense, away from you. In the long run, it’s just another way to put you under their power and make you their slave.
Americas 1st Freedom is a great magazine put out by the NRA. Subscriptions are a good way to support their efforts.
Good thing Trump has your backs. He did a good interview with the NRA before his election.
Firearms rights really are that important. It’s one of the best gauges of individual freedom, and tells you everything you need to know about the State/Citizen balance of power. Just take a quick look at history – only freemen were allowed to own and carry weapons.
