Twitter users have directed their fury at a Texas man who allegedly said on social media that a Houston Islamic center should burn down.

Dustin Herron allegedly wrote online about a fire that took place at Quba Islamic Institute last week, liberal website The Daily Kos reported on Friday.

According to the website, Herron wrote on social media 'Let it burn...block the fire hydrant' but Daily Mail Online could not confirm the authenticity of the post.

However, the Daily Kos reported that Herron is a Crystal Beach Volunteer Fire Department (CBVFD) volunteer.

And a LinkedIn profile lists a man of the same name as working for the fire department and Herron's own Facebook profile features him in front of a fire truck dressed in overalls.

oh, my. the msm is going to absolutely lose it over this one.

I don’t see anything wrong with his tweet. It’s SOP when something is beyond worth saving.

The outrage! The man in the oval office will go on tv to condemn this. The “justice” department will investigate a “hate crime.”

Meanwhile, the murders in Denmark will be forgotten.

I don’t get it, what’s the problem?

The only firemen going to mosques should be the Fahrenheit 451 type firemen.

If Islam is a real religion then I say just let Allah put the fire out.

[King Moonracer]

Its a trap. Just like during the black church burnings during slick willie’s reign of sodomy.

The Mafia always says...."never write when you can speak,never speak when you can nod,never nod when you can wink".

Advice that this fireman should have followed.

Freedom of speech only applies to the libtards and the Mosslims.

Maybe the guy who lit up the mosque like a Joe Camel cigarette was an Egyptian who was getting payback for the 21 beheadings of Egyptians by IS.

"However, CBVFD said in a statement sent to Daily Mail Online early Monday that Herron is not affiliated with the organization whatsoever."

"The statement said 'There have been recent post on social media from someone stating they are a member of our Fire Department and have posted hate messages against the Islamic Community."

"'Please know that this person, Dustin Herron, is not a member of the Crystal Beach Volunteer Fire Dept; nor has he ever been a member of our fire department."

I don't understand what they want. If he's not a volunteer fireman, do they want him to become a volunteer fireman, so that he can be fired from the unpaid position of volunteer fireman?

Or should he be sentenced to a Obama-Holder FEMA PC indoctrination camp for a few weeks and issue a statement that even if Mohammedans are in touch with their medieval side and burn prisoners in cages, that their own facilities should be immune to combustion?

So much for the First Amendment.

once again twitter and Facebook, the number 1 way to lose your job...get a divorce...go to jail....

This is one of the many reasons I don’t do social media. Too many idiots, both within and outside of the MSM to twist your words into balloon animals.

the only people responding to a mollusk fire should be the ammunitions experts and enough police to clear the innocents from the surrounding area.

If this report is true, the Daily Kos is our enemy.

[celmak]

I’m trying to work up a good steam of anger towards this man.... I’ll get back to you when I’m ready.

You are correct. Muslims rule the world now. Muslims are the only ones with free speech.
