Jan Morgans is a business owner in Arkansas. She owns a firing range in Hot Springs, Arkansas named Gun Cave Indoor Firing Range. What is so controversial about Morgans business is not the firearms, but the discrimination in her business. She has declared her business a "Muslim-free" zone. Morgans does not have a problem with expressing her beliefs with others. Morgans, according to The Blaze wrote on her blog Sunday, "“I will do whatever is necessary to provide a safe environment for my customers, even at the cost of the increased threats and legal problems this decision will likely provoke."
Another reason that Morgans claims she has banned Muslims from her business is from the Boston Marathon bombings in 2013, 9/11, the 2009 Fort Hood shooting and the recent beheading in Oklahoma. Morgans also wrote on her blog, "I understand that not all muslims are terrorists. I also believe there are as many Muslims who do not know what is in their Koran as there are Christians who do not know what is in their Bible,.” She continues with, “Since I have no way of discerning which muslims will or will not kill in the name of their religion and the commands in their koran…I choose to err on the side of caution for the safety of my patrons.” Morgans realizes she is infringing upon human rights, as well as the US Constitution.
