An 18 year old from Gainesville claims he was turned away when he tried to buy a gun at Bass Pro Shops on Friday. The young man thinks it was discrimination. Malik Bakr is of legal age to buy a firearm. He wanted to go on a hunting trip with some friends. He went to the new Bass Pro Shops in Gainesville, and brought his friend Heath Smiley, an experienced hunter and gun owner. "It was his first time owning one. First time ever shooting one, I went with him as guidance to tell him what he should buy for his first time, what would be most comfortable for him," said Smiley. |

| If it looks like the guy on the 4473 isn't the guy making the purchase decisions, remind me how many years in prison you can get for not 'discriminating' against them? |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
