Did they really expect to get away with this, or were they just hoping for the free publicity?
 
I guess I wouldn’t like it if the gun range was only for men and women were excluded.
 
I don’t agree with excluding Muslims, but I will also point out that under this logic, the Westboro Baptist could sue GLADD for access to their facilities.

It’s dangerous to mess with private property.
