    Ad for gun training bars Muslims and Obama voters

    A radio ad for a handgun training class that bars Muslims and Obama voters has sparked an investigation in Texas.
    "We will attempt to teach you all the necessary information you need to obtain your [Concealed Handgun License]," the ad says. Then towards the end, it adds: "If you are a socialist liberal and/or voted for the current campaigner in chief, please do not take this class. You have already proven that you cannot make a knowledgeable and prudent decision under the law."
    And then: "If you are a non-Christian Arab or Muslim, I will not teach you the class with no shame; I am Crockett Keller, thank you, and God bless America."
    The ad ran for six days on KHLB, Mason's local station. It's also been heard tens of thousands of times on Youtube.
    Keller, 65, has said in media interviews that he just regards the message is just common sense. "The fact is, if you are a devout Muslim, then you cannot be a true American," he told local news station KVUE, while fielding calls congratulating him for his stance. "Why should I arm these people to kill me? That's suicide."
    "I call it exercising my right to choose who I instruct in how to use a dangerous weapon," he added.
    But the state of Texas may disagree. The Department of Public Safety said in a statement that certified instructors of handgun training are required to comply with all applicable state and federal laws, and added: "Conduct by an instructor that denied service to individuals on the basis of race, ethnicity or religion would place that instructor's certification by the Department at risk of suspension or revocation." The department has said it has begun an investigation.
    It seems unlikely that Keller will back down, though. "I'm not going to do it," he told the local news. "I will give up my license to teach before I will teach them," he said, referring to Obama voters and Muslims.

    Guy has got his priorities right.
    And in a free country, a teacher should be free to teach whomever the hell he wants to.

    God Bless America. Especially Texas

    I totally agree with the man.

    muslims are a danger to our society and should not be given assistance in arming themselves.

    I think I've found a loophole

    admit nothing
    deny everything
    make counter accusations

    Good point, but I think the law doesn't consider the rights of a drunk to be equal to the rights of an individual. Still, I totally agree with Mr. Keller. I wish him the best in his fight against the state.

    usually wouldn't the drunkening follow the admission and resulting service?

    The law actually considers the rights of a drunk to be above the rights of an individual. Hence government continues to try to ban or restrict access to firearms while virtually ignoring the fact that multitudes more people are harmed by alcohol than by firearms. And some who are harmed by firearms would not be if alcohol were not used at the same time.

    Met that guy today at the Fredericksburg gun show. Super nice guy! He really didn't expect all the attention he got over this. "IT WAS JUST A LITTLE LOCAL AD SPOT" he kept saying. He shows no interest in backing off his position either. A few people were taking pictures with him in front of his now infamous sign.
