In a video released Wednesday by the Islamic State, a one-legged fighter identified by the group as an American calls on Muslims in the United States to take advantage of the countrys gun laws to obtain weapons and carry out attacks.
The fighter, identified by the nom de guerre Abu Salih al-Amriki, wears khaki fatigues with a holstered pistol in the online video, published by a propaganda wing of the Islamic State. He speaks in English with what sounds like a New York City-area accent.
Take advantage of the fact that you can easily obtain a rifle or a pistol in America, the fighter says. Spray the kuffar [infidels] with bullets so that their fear of the Muslims rises and they continue to reveal their hatred towards Islam.
The SITE Intelligence Group, which tracks Islamist militant media, published a copy of the video, in which Abu Salih also calls President Trump a dog of Rome.

(45,579 posts)Even people who are known ISIS supporters and are being watched by the FBI can not be denied a gun permit because the NRA makes it so difficult.
And while the NRA supporters will helpfully suggest we go the racist route and profile brown people, ISIS supporters are much whiter than you may think.
This Virginia police officer Nicholas Young was arrested for providing support to ISIS
