Offending Muslims with Guns? What's that going to do? The Muslims will just wait for ISIS to arrive and then they will get their revenge.
Try that snip on your average Hell's Angel, Crip, redneck, cop, or Texan.

I think all of us understand its not everyone.
When someone says something like this, the whole "hey just go out and kill any Muslim you happen upon", it's a bit hurtful, especially when this is your country too - and you want to feel safe here. This kind of thing makes you feel less safe in a country you were born and raised, but, aside from the occasional idiot... the ones who were born and raised here know its not that bad, nor is it everyone's mentality.
I do think occasionally people should be reminded, ISIS is killing us, and no one else, overseas. It is our lives in danger...
They gave them the choice to repent, so some shia went and "repented" and they were all found dead within a few hours of this... It is Muslims who are dying, and it matters not what we do. They don't care about western anything... they want to kill Muslims.
“Sometimes you overreact,” Ellzey explained. “I’m not trying to offend anybody. I sure wouldn’t shoot anybody. I don’t even own a gun.”

That being said, I could see the point of,say, drawing pictures of Mohammed everywhere to make the point that your freedom (of religion) is not allowed in anyway to infringe on mine.
Offend Muslims with crayons not guns.

I don't think the republican party needs to make this into some political statement, either for or against.
Yes, those poor persecuted American Christians.

Apparently the only 'religious' people in this country that are 'allowed' to be offended are Christians!
Anyone else ?
Not so much.

The Kansas Republican Party is distancing itself from its Kansas Republican 3rd Congressional District Committee vice chairman after he tweeted that Americans had a “duty” to use firearms to “offend” Muslims.
Gavin Ellzey admitted to the Kansas City Star that he had tweeted: “Offending Muslims is the duty of any civilized person. Especially with a .45.”
“Sometimes you overreact,” Ellzey explained. “I’m not trying to offend anybody. I sure wouldn’t shoot anybody. I don’t even own a gun.”
In a statement obtained by KSHB, Kansas Republican Party Executive Director Clay Barker disavowed Ellzey’s remarks.
Damn, giving more ammunition to the democrats......I'm truly sorry, my corny dna has a mind of it's own.
God I love politics!!!

I don't see how any rational human being could write something like that and be okay with it. Even his own party thinks he's stupid. The best part is is when he said he wasn't trying to offend anyone.

Not in this Country. ISIS in America would get slaughtered like a colony of ants against a can of hair spray and a lighter.
