President Barack Obama on Thursday from the Oval Office offered his “deepest condolences” to the families of the four slain Marines at multiple military sites in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
“It is a heartbreaking circumstance for these individual who have served our country with great valor to be killed in this fashion,” Obama said.
Authorities had not yet identified the Marines who were killed.
“I want them to know that I speak for the American people in expressing our deepest condolences, and knowing that they have our full support as they try to overcome the grief that’s involved here,” Obama said.

What kind of an idiot sells a semi-automatic weapon to a guy named Mohammad youssaf Abdulazeez?
I’m not thinking that everyone with a name like that is a member of ISIS. But I’m thinking that ANYONE with a name like that who wants to purchase a semi-automatic high power rifle and has a name like that should never get his hands on such a weapon.
Come on, people, wake up!
I do not know how he came in possession of this weapon, but if he bought it legally, therein lies the rub. People who sell guns don’t’ care - they want to make that sale. I don’t think you can refuse to sell a gun to someone based on their name, can you?

Wow. That’s a surprise, actually.
He wasn’t playing with a full deck, but the jury didn’t buy the testimony of the “experts” for the defense, apparently.
Um, what?!!
