    American Muslims say they own guns for the same reasons as anyone else: for protection, for hunting, or for their work. But they also cite another factor: fear of persecution.https://nyti.ms/2Lz9GgZ

        Isn’t fear of persecution, aka tyranny, the basis of the 2nd amendment? Doesn’t The NY Times mock non-Muslims who make this argument?

        Cool deal, you know @MrColionNoir over at the @NRA had something along this line recently https://www.nratv.com/episodes/noir-season-7-episode-3-chicago-the-real-story … BTW on the membership application you will not find a block for your religion, race, gender, and etcetera. #2A is for #ThePPL.

        That's the purposes of the 2nd Amendment you ignorant dolts!! Did it take a minority to explain the fundamental concepts to you? Hunting and work are not the reasons we have a natutal right to bear arms.

        It’s almost as if when we remove the rhetoric, we all basically want the same things.
