Oklahoma: Muslim with loaded AK-47 sues after being turned away from outdoor shooting range
Jihad Watch ^ | 02/19/2016 | Robert Spencer

“Fatihah, a self-proclaimed sharia-adherent Muslim, alleges that he was not permitted to use the Neal’s firing range because he was Muslim in violation of state and federal anti-discrimination laws. But the facts will prove otherwise. On October 23, 2015, Fatihah entered the Neal’s facility with an AK-47 over his shoulder, magazine inserted. The firing range is an outdoor range, and it was pouring rain that day...

Clearly Fatihah was trying to provoke a reaction he could use to do exactly what he is doing. And that’s the best possible spin one can put on his behavior.

“ On February 17, 2016, Raja’ee Fatihah, a board member of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) of Oklahoma, with the assistance of CAIR legal counsel and the ACLU, sued Chad (a disabled Iraqi war veteran) and Nicole Neal, the owners of the Save Yourself Survival and Tactical Gun Range, which is located in Oktaha, Oklahoma.

Fatihah, a self-proclaimed sharia-adherent Muslim, alleges that he was not permitted to use the Neal’s firing range because he was Muslim in violation of state and federal anti-discrimination laws.

While no one at the range ever asked Fatihah what his religion was, he became confrontational with the owners over his religion and his adherence to sharia, further raising the owners’ concerns about this man’s motives and intent. In fact, the owners seriously feared for their personal safety.

Consequently, they asked Fatihah to fill out a form and then told him that they would get back with him regarding whether he could fire at the range. The owners then promptly (and rightfully so) did a background check on Fatihah and found out that he was a board member of CAIR—an organization with strong ties to terrorism—confirming the owners’ suspicions.

My gun range has HUGE signs (plural) that the weapons should not the loaded and clips are to be clearly separated from the weapon.

Only the beginning kiddies. As long as Obama brings in thousands of his buddies and Saudi Arabia builds Mosques for them to train in this will go on and only get worse.

The saddest thing of this whole episode was that his 7 year old wife broke down and cried because she was promised pizza.

He is a DHS employee, IIRC, so it’s actually a government sanctioned case, no?

Of course muzzies are not threats! Obama harrangues us almost daily to “turn in your guns and trust the Muslims”.

Legal jihad, designed to weaken our vigilance. Any open Sharia adherent should be arrested as a terrorist.

He’s probably out demanding that pizza places only serve halal first.

I did not read the whole article. Was this a public range or private one?

Privately owned, not sure why you’re asking.

Only the beginning?? You forgot the rest—”and as long as the ACLU will agree to defend the “RIGHTS” of an individual who parades around carring a LOADED AK47, an act that violates
EVERY know gun law in the country.
My understanding is that even the NRA agrees that no one has the right to carry an Ak47 with a full magazine in public.
Isn’t the AK classified as an “ASSAULT RIFLE?”

It will be a tough case for the owners of the range to win as it will be in federal court, and apparently the range had a “no Muslims allowed” sign.
His lawyer will cite Public Accommodation of the Civil Rights Act.

And here we already have a safety problem. I would bet range rules say the weapon needs to be unloaded/cleared/on safe/ and open bolt safety in if possible.

I get real flipping leary if someone starts messing around with anything resembling a loaded firearm unless they are on the firing line and its pointed downrange.
