(WVLT) --</span></span> In the market for a gun? An East Tennessee store is offering a deal, as long as you're a Christian. The owner of Frontier Firearms says the mass shooting in Oregon prompted the sale. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">"If Christians are going to be targeted, we need to protect ourselves," said Brant Williams, Owner of Frontier Firearms. "The best way to protect yourself is with the best weapon available, and that happens to be a handgun."</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Gun store owner Brant Williams is taking a state leader's suggestion. Last week after the tragic shootings in Oregon, Lt. Governor Ron Ramsey encouraged Christians who are serious about their faith to think about getting a handgun carry permit. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">"Ron Ramsey had a good point," said Williams.

"It's a matter of saying the words 'I'm a Christian' and you get the discount."</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Williams said this is important because people are targeted for their beliefs. he doesn't want to hide his faith.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">"We can stand up and not worry about being shot for our beliefs, or maybe we can stand up and shoot back," said Williams.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Cameron Brooks is the Chairman of the Knox County Democratic Party.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">"Anyone who is not Christian and in our society is excluded," said Brooks.
