Anti-Islam militia leader David Wright, a self-declared 'extremist', says he has the right to declare a mosque radical based on his own investigations whether law enforcement agencies agree or not.

A Kentucky man, who runs a anti-Islam militia, has protested outside mosques armed with shotguns.

Kentucky is known for giving America its most famous Muslim boxer, Muhammad Ali.

But the southeastern US state is also home to the anti-Islam militia group BAIR. The leader of the militia group David Wright has protested outside mosques armed with shotguns.

Wright says he is only against radicals, but local Muslims don’t agree.

TRT World's Abubakr al Shamahi went to Louisville to talk to some of the people involved.
