In what has yet to be declared a criminal act or an act of terrorism, a lone gunman opened fire at two military facilities in Chattanooga, Tennessee on Thursday, killing four Marines and injuring one police officer.

The White House is probably in full spin mode trying their best to make this terrorist act about the gun¬ the Muslim killer. #Chattanooga
