EDIT: I see this is a New York case not the case in Florida where a shop owner is refusing to sell firearms to Muslims.  Either way, the same problem applies.  Is refusing to sell a firearm to someone a violation of their Civil Rights?  If so, then firearm ownership is a Civil Right.  Not good for New York State and the SAFE Act IMHO.

I have been following this story for a week now and he wasjust sued by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) in Florida. They are claiming it is a Civil Rights violation for him to refuse to sell toMuslims.  However, the ATF is siding with him as it is their position thatan FFL should not sell a firearm to someone they are not comfortable sellingto.  To me, the implications of such a court case are intriguing.  Itdefinitely creates a quandary for Progressives.  They are generallyagainst any kind of discrimination against minorities though they seem at times to be for religiousdiscrimination unless it is against Muslims.  Yet they also refuse toaccept the SCOTUS ruling that firearm ownership is a Civil Right and the circuit courts have tended to go along with that point of view.  So, ifthe court rules that the store owner is violating the Civil Rights of Muslims,they are tacitly admitting that firearms ownership is a Civil Right which willhave enormous ramifications on the status of firearms rights.  If theyrule against CAIR then it opens the door to refusing services that are notguaranteed as Civil Rights to various groups the proprietor disagrees with suchas bakers refusing to make wedding cakes for same-sex couples.  Grantedcourts often have a way to piss both sides off in a ruling but this one seemsto be ripe for setting a precedent either way.

No matter how it turns out it there will still be a double standard for firearms and those who sell them.
It's a Civil Rights violation to refuse to sell a house or Rent one to someone because of (Race, Color, Creed, etc.) same standard could be applied to the refusal to sell a gun to someone simply because of their (race, color, creed, etc.)

What makes you think for a second that there aren't any Islamic FFL's (roll in Muslim, Arabic, Middle Eastern, etc.) I clearly remember seeing and even dealing with them as far back as the 80's

Mexicans smuggle shit-tons of illegal Drugs into the Country; I find it hard to believe there aren't other things brought in by the same.

History even recent is full of examples of young, radical, Islamic terrorists committing heinous crimes supposedly  in the name of Allah....I'm betting they didn't buy any of the weapons they used legally or on the open market.

People in Business really cannot be honest about their dealings either with customers and for damn sure with the government, so I suppose if you don't want to sell to someone whose not of a religion you approve of, you'd better have you story straight and not deviate from it; in fact the less said the better.
