Naturalized terrorist

We now have four U.S. Marines shot dead in our homeland.

These young men had taken an oath to defend our rights and freedom, but what oath did this killer, who was born in Kuwait and became a United States citizen, take to gun-down these Marines?

I marvel at the politically correct newscasters and pundits searching to find the reason for this act of violence against the people who protect this nation, and avoiding calling it what it is.
