Wells from Marietta, GA; Sullivan from Springfield, MA. Hat tip (again) to the Daily Mail for outstanding coverage of this AMERICAN TERROR story.

Both are white soldiers and killed by a Muslim. In other words, most of the media doesn’t care and some even applaud and the president couldn’t care less unless there was a confederate flag or transgender involved.

...Wells, from Marietta, Georgia.......

Not far from me.

...Sullivan, from Springfield, Massachusetts, served two tours of duty in Iraq, survived the battle of Abu Ghraib and was awarded the Purple Heart ...

My God. Yet he was not safe at home. The muslim POS managed to get him on his soil, OUR soil. I have no words.

A nit to pick. They were Marines, not soldiers. Please never confuse the two.

Marines slaughtered on American soil by the enemy SHOULD BE an act of war. Except for carter, this president is the only one who allows this to stand. We should take about 50,000 marines into the ME and wipe ISIS out, instead Obama is extending warm wishes to Muslims for their holiday.

Americans need to wake up. The next kid shot and killed or blown up could be anybody’s. It’s war, and it’s here.

In Obama’s world there is no such thing as an Act of War against the United States.

That will be so until the same members of the media have one of their own taken out then they will demand action.

Why be so redundant? Murder of infidels is part and parcel of Islam. It is like you're saying Islam Islamic Muslim. Such action isn't radical - not when majorities around the world condone the killing of those who insult the "prophet". A radical would be an Islamic who doesn't believe such action is justified.

True, until something hits home, they will continue to ignore, deflect, and excuse as they always do.
