Former Texas A&M student barred Hindu family from 'Muslim-free' gun range in Arkansas

Jan Morgan — a gun range owner in Hot Springs, Arkansas, who declared her business a "Muslim-free zone" last year — has reportedly barred a Hindu father and son of South Asian descent from her range.

The son, who asked local media to keep him and his father anonymous for safety concerns, told Arkansas Matters that they were immediately asked where they were from upon entering the range, answering that they were from Hot Springs.

Morgan then informed the pair that the range is "Muslim free," to which they replied they are Hindu, the son said.

The son said Morgan threatened to call the police if the father and son refused to leave.

"She just said, 'you know, I don't think you guys belong here,'" the son told Arkansas Matters.
