Minneapolis students wounded after drunken gunman opens fire while screaming ‘f*ck Muslims’

Post by Irn Bru on Wed Jul 06, 2016 1:03 am

Police are searching for a gunman who opened fire on five Somali men on their way to prayer services in Minneapolis.

The men were wearing traditional Muslim clothing while driving from a basketball game about 2 a.m. Wednesday to a late prayer service at a nearby mosque whey overheard a man making disparaging remarks about their religion, reported the Star Tribune.

It’s not unusual for Muslims to stay awake for overnight services during the holy month of Ramadan, which ends next week, and the men had actually been at the mosque earlier before leaving to go play basketball near the University of Minnesota campus.

They overhead a “very drunk” man make insulting remarks about Muslims as they got into their car, and they spotted the same man at the next intersection and questioned him about the insults, reported KARE-TV.

And yet -- we have people here who think concealed carry (or even open carry) should be allowed in bars and (let's be realistic) universities.

AND JUST LAST WEEK, we saw the NRA use their Congress sockpuppets to block discussion on a law to stop people on terrorism watchlists and "no fly" lists from being able to buy guns without any kind of background checks, or closer scrutiny and oversight..

Go figure..
