One Tennessee gun shop owner is having a special sale – for Christians only.
Last week, one day after the horrific Oregon shooting that left nine people dead at a community college, Tennessee’s Republican Lt. Governor Ron Ramsey announced that Christians were now “targets” of “perpetrators are motivated by aggressive secularism.”Â
Eastern Tennessee gun shop owner Brant Williams took Ramsey’s warning to heart.
“Ron Ramsey had a good point,” Williams says. “Christians need to arm up.”
Williams, who owns Frontier Firearms and the Frontier Firearms Family Shooting Center in Kingston posted to Facebook a special sale for Christians only.
“Save 5% off any new handgun by saying, ‘I’m a Christian,'” the Facebook ad reads:
“If Christians are going to be targeted, we need to protect ourselves,” Williams told WLTV. “The best way to protect yourself is with the best weapon available, and that happens to be a handgun.”
“We can stand up and not worry about being shot for our beliefs, or maybe we can stand up and shoot back,” Williams says. “I’d like to let Christians know there are businesses out there, even though the law likes to silence us and those that oppose us like to silence us, but we won’t be silenced.”Â
Williams isn’t the only one pushing the “I Am A Christian” meme. GOP presidential candidate Ben Carson has turned that into a logo and a bumper sticker, which conveniently advertises his campaign’s web address.
