PGA Tour golfer Bob Estes tweeted in response to the shooting outside a Garland, Texas “Draw Mohammad” event Sunday night that “Muslims may decide to exercise their [Second Amendment] rights” when others exercise their First Amendment rights.
“If you feel the need to mock Muhammad in a cartoon, just realize that Muslims may decide to exercise their #2A rights on you #truth #WWJD,” Estes tweeted, using the popular hashtags for “Second Amendment” and “What would Jesus do.”

Estes eventually deleted the tweet and admitted he shouldn’t have brought up the Second Amendment, but continued to defend his original point. (RELATED: College Professor: Charlies Hebdo Was ‘Devoted To Hate Speech’)
I shouldn't have inserted 2A into my tweet. The point was that Muslims will react(possibly with guns) however they want to. I'll correct it.

My point was obviously that nobody can control how Muslims will react. This is only the beginning if you can't tell. People WILL die.

You can mock Muhammad if you feel the need or you can spread the love of Christ and hope and pray that they convert. Many have already.

.@rwgranny You must not understand how many people could've died tonight and will in the future. Draw away if you feel the need. I don't.

Too many people still missing the point: Of course we have the freedom of speech here in America but you can't control how others react.

Bizarrely, Estes seemed to pivot to the other extreme at one point, saying Muslims would keep killing unless they were locked up.
Everybody chill. I shouldn't have inserted 2A. The point was that Muslims will react however they want to unless you lock 'em all up.
