Texas Won’t Punish Anti-Muslim Handgun Instructor

Backdown by gun instructor?
"The Texas Dept. of Public Safety will not revoke or suspend the license of a handgun instructor who ran a radio ad telling Muslims and non-Christian Arabs that he would not teach them how to handle a firearm.

The DPS statement said Crockett Keller affirmed that he would not refuse handgun instruction “to anyone based on national origin, race or religion.” The state agency declined to provide any further comment.

The Texas Council on American-Islamic Relations said the state’s decision “sounded funny.” “I thought he meant it,” Texas CAIR executive director Mustafaa Carroll told Fox News. “There’s a lot of hateful rhetoric in the atmosphere in America these days.”

He said many of the Muslims who contacted him just brushed off Keller’s statements. “We hear so much of it,” he said. “People find it distasteful. When they hear things like that they just write it off to another crack pot.”
