Such bravery

Although the Second Amendment specifically states that the right to bear arms is in order to have a “well regulated militia”, not only do most Second Amendment defenders like to ignore that detail, even SCOTUS member Judge Scalia has said it was okay to do that, but it would seem that some method to get these people well regulated might be in order.

In response to the drive-by shootings at military recruitment offices, local non-military militias have been standing guard outside of these offices in various locations, including inside shopping malls, but they seem to ignore that if someone is going to shoot at the office as they drive by, guys all armed and wearing paramilitary get ups will not really stop the bullets.

But they do throw down a dare.

And to make matters worse, not only have these self appointed guards been seen standing with their fingers on their weapons’ triggers, not in line with safe fire arms handling, but there have been instances where, while showing each other their neat-o guns, some have gone off.

Such mishaps reached an almost comical level when you consider that a mom and pop shooting range in a small town in Oklahoma that has no Muslims in its area, posted a sign saying “No Muslims allowed”, called for militias to help guard their shooting range against these non-existent Muslims, and one of these heroes, while explaining they were not hillbillies, shot himself.

Sheriff Charles Pearson of Muskogee County in Oklahoma said that the man dropped his gun and a bullet hit him in the arm.

The group is standing guard outside the Save Yourself Survival and Tactical Gear store after the owners said they received death threats from all over the world for putting up a sign saying Muslims weren’t allowed.

The Sheriff explained:

“I saw several of those gentlemen out there yesterday. The way they were holding their weapons, with the fingers on the triggers, you can tell a couple of these gentlemen have no idea about weapons safety. It’s like the Clampetts have come to town.”

He then added:

“Everybody is entitled to say what they feel, and the other people are entitled to tell them how they feel about their opinion. When that gets out of control, that’s where we come in. The only thing that I ask, if they are true patriots, that when the threats do come or the undesirables do show up, call us and allow us to handle it”.

Then to show another kink in their patriot armor, when Chris Martin, a two-time war veteran from Desert Storm and the Cold War, showed up from California to express his disapproval of this whole business, he was asked to leave because he is a practicing Muslim, but whose job had been “to save marines and sailors”.

Thank you for your service, by the way.

But, he was allowed on the gun range when his veteran status was made known.

So clearly the ban is not against all Muslims, just those who are terrorists and extremists, and they can certainly be picked out of crowd in spite of the statistics that show there have been far fewer acts of terrorism and mass shootings in the United States by Muslims than by white Christians

Obviously this is one of those “I love ‘Murka” ploys that without a solid base attempts to show extreme patriotism, as the sign is meant to keep non-existent local Muslims away, but when confronted with some Muslim reality, crumbles.

The gun range closed that afternoon, the owners’ pseudo-braggadocio having been revealed, and its line of defense a little careless.
