Per Twitter, ISIS is claiming this attack, and for the Kuwait Suicide attack this morning.

This is of course impossible, as Tunisia has restrictive gun control laws and one of the lowest rates of civilian firearms ownership in the world.

My thought, as well.

Why the hell would ANYONE go to a muzzie country for Vacation in these times, especially one that has been “Fundamentally-changed” by Obama and the Muzzie Brohood?

If they were hoping for a lot of America press, they picked the wrong day. Obama is giving the eulogy for Rev./Sen. Pinckney today.

Who could have done such a thing? A demented young man?
Jehovah’s Witnesses? Confederates? Why, who could it be?

“Who could have done such a thing?”

Regardless of who it was, I still think that all of white America has to answer for it.

This is why harsh, secular dictatorships in muslim countries are the best option. Tunisia was the first to fall to the “Arab Spring” mess, and here we are.

Other news at the site—a gas plant explosion in Lyon, France with a man decapitated and an Islamic flag left at scene.
OK, let’s get back to the important effort to ban Dixie’s stars and bars flag.

Must be a Muzzie Day of Rage today. Looks like Obama’s brothers are on a rampage all over the world today. I pray that doesn’t happen here.

You misspelled Grauniad. Though “Gaurdian” is pretty close.

Now, now, Christians... let’s not jump to conclusions and get on our high horses here...

Remember... Crusades and all.
